<p>1 year. Calc as a senior.</p>
<p>Pre-calc in sophomore..</p>
<p>1 year. also calc as a senior</p>
<p>Not enough.</p>
<p>T_T</p>
<p>I'm a half year ahead of the rest of the school. It would've been a year but I failed Math B the first time I took it.</p>
<p>I still don't know how i'm a half-year ahead because I suck at math but meh.</p>
<p>This kid from Scarsdale is a beast. He finished AP Calc in the 7th grade I believe? Maybe eighth, but this year he's talking Multivariable and Linear Alg.</p>
<p>Perhaps different schools have different names for their math classes.</p>
<p>STANDARD (Assuming they go to the same Jr high and high school as I do)~
JRHS:
7th - Algebra Part I
8th - Algebra Part II, Geometry Part I</p>
<p>High School (diff school)
9th - Geometry
10th - Trig
11th - Pre-Calc
12th - AP Calc</p>
<p>ME (I took long distance courses):
6th - Algebra
7th - Geometry
8th - Alg/Geo
9th - Alg I
10th - Precalc
11th - TBD
12th - TBD</p>
<p>Well, terence tao owns us all. i don't think anyone is going to top that.</p>
<p>Yes, what an amazing individual. The mere thought of him renders me a foolish idiot. Yet somehow, he motivates me, and I pray that I may have a thousandth of his intelligence. :)</p>
<p>i'm a senior, and i've already taken multivariable calculus and linear algebra. this year, i'm taking a course in dynamical systems, which makes me 3 years ahead, i believe.</p>
<p>by the way, this thread makes a really bad assumption about math: that there's a single correct progression of courses in math, which is straight up untrue. math is largely non-linear once you get past 1st year analysis (i.e. calculus), so there's no way to measure how "ahead" you are. number theory, differential geometry/algebraic topology, complex analysis, combinatorics, etc. are all very advanced fields, but none of them is "more advanced" than any of the others.</p>
<p>As a sophomore I took the Accelerated Pre-Calculus class and got a year ahead.</p>
<p>As a junior I'll be taking the AP Calculus ABC and will be like, 2 or 3 years ahead....</p>
<p>It's kinda funny because in 7th and 8th grade I was barely doing okay in math, in 9th grade I took regular Geometry, hated it, desired the same challenge given to me by my others honors classes, now I'm so far ahead I laugh at the homework given to some of my other friends. But then I help them out so it all works out : D</p>

True, but there's no need to go that deep :). Even after calculus you're studying either linear algebra (which has not much of relation to calculus) or go further into analysis and do differential equations. Real fun and division begins after that :)</p>
<p>But since not a lot of HS students really go beyond lin.alg./dif.eqs I don't think it's quite wrong to build straight sequence.</p>
<p>Alg. I in 7th, geometry in 8th...around here alg. I is a freshman/sophomore course, depending on the student...so that puts me 2/3 years ahead. even though I suck at math!</p>
