I am a freshman in High School and am taking Algebra 2 accelerated (highest level). My teacher recommended me for both BC Pre-calculus accelerated and geometry accelerated. Most students take geometry in 10th grade and pre-calculus in 11th, then AP Calculus (usually). However, a group of my friends, both smart and not so smart (at math), are taking both geometry and pre-calculus next year. They say that junior year will be difficult with the SATs and applications, and geometry is relatively easy, so I should take both precalc and geometry next year. What do you think?
By the way, I have a busy schedule as I am taking all accelerated classes. Is it worth it to move down a level in a class like History or Spanish in order to have more time to do Precalculus and Geometry?
Thanks in advance!
