<p>so i skipped pre-algebra and went straight to algebra 1. So far in algebra 1 I have gotten a B and C on my report card. When selecting classes for freshman year next year, my math teacher originally placed me in regular geometry. a few days later she replaced in algebra 1,because I struggled with some of the concepts taught in algebra 1. she said not understanding algebra will effect later in algebra 2. </p>
<ul>
<li>does not understanding algebra 1 effect you later in algebra 2? </li>
<li>does retaking algebra 1 look bad on my transcript for high school?
( i want to try and get into newhouse,which is a prestigious university)</li>
</ul>
