i need opinions here.

Pre-College Issues High School Life
1

<p>okayy, so i switched town districts this year & im now going to be a freshman.</p>

<p>my 8th grade class last year was an Algebra/Geometry mix. We didn't finish the whole geometry course, so i was supposed to take a summer course over the summer. I didn't take the summer course, so theres still some things that i haven't mastered.</p>

<p>my new school put me in an Honors Algebra 2/Trig class. I don't know what i should do. They're not making me test into it but do you think i am ready for this. Should I tell them that i want to be in Geometry? if i do this class, i will finish the geometry soon, but i just don't know what i should do. someone give me advice here. =|</p>

<p>bump* hah i reallyy need someone to talk this out with me.</p>

3

<p>Did you finish the Algebra I at least?</p>

<p>The geometry really isn't that important- you shouldn't be at a disadvantage.</p>

4

<p>okayy. yeah i completely finished algebra 1 & like half of geometry. i have the geometry book the school uses & i'm going to be taking a course starting in like december that will finish my geometry.</p>

<p>You'll be fine.</p>

<p>Algebra 2 is a lot more like an expansion on algebra 1 than it is Geometry. You get into a little bit with Conic Sections (ew, this was like my least favorite part of the class), but you should be fine. :) I'd take the course.</p>

<p>I loved conic sections. But that was just me. :D</p>

<p>Algebra 2 isn't really an expansion on geometry at all.
It's why some schools have you take math in a different order other than Al. 1, geom, al 2 (IE Al. 1, Al. 2, then Geom; or Geom, Al 1, Al 2)</p>

<p>u dont really need geometry in algebra 2
but id suggest u crack open a geometry book and flip through it a bit</p>

<p>Sadist.</p>

<p>XD just kidding. <333</p>

<p>I just don't like math much...I didn't like systems either. I can do them, but it takes me FOREVER.</p>

<p>Ughh. I hated geometry. Just Take Algebra 2/Trig. You don't really need geometry for any other math class.</p>

10

<p>okayy, i'm taking it! i'm going to just look at geometryyy stuff with my uncle who is a geometryy teacher sometime soon i guess...</p>

<p>Geometry isn't that important for Algebra 2, I think. Just scan through whatever bit of the textbook you haven't learned yet.</p>

<p>I never used Geometry in Algebra II. But you might consider going over Geometry for Trig.</p>
