What is the accelerated Math course sequence in your high school?

<p>Basically it depends on what math track you were placed in in middle school, BUT some really smart people took courses over the summer/tested out of the less advanced tracks to get to the most advanced track:</p>

<p>9th-AP Calc AB
10th-AP Calc BC
11-college courses
12-college courses</p>

<p>A lost cause if you’re IB, though, because then in 11th grade you’re FORCED to take SL Math…</p>

<p>6-pre alg
7-alg
8-geom
9-alg 2
10- pre calc
11/12-Bc/ab/stats(order doesn’t matter</p>

<p>For math teamers:
Freshmen: geometry
Sophomore: precalc
Junior: calc BC
senior: Calc 3 or Diffeq at local university
AP Stats sometime before senior year
others:
Freshmen: alg II
Sophomore: geometry
Junior: precalc
Senior: Calc BC</p>

<p>The most advanced at my school is:</p>

<p>7th: Algebra I
8th: Geometry
9th: Algebra II
10th: Precalculus
11th: AP Calculus AB
12th: AP Calculus BC (yeah, my school thinks that the one quarter of non-AB material in BC should be spread out over the entire year. . .)</p>

<p>But instead, I went rogue and took the following route:</p>

<p>8th: Algebra I
9th: Geometry
10th Algebra II
summer between 9th and 10th: Calculus I (I skipped Precalculus; it counts as AB on my transcript)
11th: AP Calculus BC and AP Statistics
12th: Multivariable Calculus (LSU Distance Learning), Linear Algebra and Differential Equations (LSU Distance Learning), Modern (Abstract) Algebra (EPGY)</p>

<p>And that doesn’t even account for the fact that I’ve tought myself Real Analysis, Complex Analysis, Mathematical Logic, Number Theory, Vector Analysis, and Topology from the most rigorous text books my mathematical maturity can handle. </p>

<p>I REALLY like math!! ;-)</p>

<p>That’s depressing. My school is WAAYYYY behind all the ones I’ve seen here.</p>

<p>(For years with multiple courses, they’re listed from least advanced to most advanced.)
6th: Basic Math (Everyone. At the end of the year, you take a placement test which determines the rest of your years of math.)
7th: Pre-Algebra 1 or Pre-Algebra 1 and 2
8th: Pre-Algebra 1 and 2 or Algebra 1
9th: Pre-Algebra, Algebra 1, or Geometry
10th: Algebra 1, Geometry, Algebra 2, Algebra 2 with Trigonometry
11th: Geometry, Algebra 2, Algebra 2 with Trigonometry, Advanced Math Topics, Honors Pre-Calculus
12th: Algebra 2, Algebra 2 with Trigonometry, Advanced Math Topics, Honors Pre-Calculus, AP Statistics, AP Calculus AB</p>

<p>And then there’s the random options of Business Math and Personal Finance, which I personally don’t even count (because they’re essentially just basic math). Personally, I self-studied AP Calc AB during Honors Pre-Calc (which was a joke), so I have AP Stats now and am self-studying AP Calc BC. I’m jealous of all your schools that have such advanced offerings.</p>

<p>There’s nothing stopping you from learning more math. If you really enjoy it, you can get yourself a textbook or go online and learn the more advanced stuff on your own. Of course, you won’t get credit for it, but that’s not really the point anyway.</p>

<p>Our math program begins in 7th. We have 3 different levels, depending on which math you took in 6th grade.
(Courses in order from “normal” to most accelerated)
7th grade: Pre-Algebra, Algebra 1
8th grade: Algebra 1, Accelerated Algebra 1, Geometry
9th grade: Geometry, Accelerated Geometry, Algebra 2
10th grade: Geometry, Algebra 2, Precalc
11th grade: Algebra 2, Precalc, usually AP Calc AB and BC
12th grade: Precalc, AP Calc or AP stats, Math course at the U of Minnsota (PSEO)</p>

<p>Wow. . . My School offers
7: Algebra 1 Honors
8: Algebra 2 Honors (Geometry offered as summer course)
9: Precalculas Honors
10: AP Calc BC
11: Multivariable Calculas and Linear Algebra
12: Numerical Analysis and Differential Equations
*Note: Last course is only offered at magnet high school. Some of the geniuses at that school can actually skip Precalculas Honors and therefore be required to take third year college math courses at nearby college</p>

<p>Seventh Grade: Algebra 1
Eighth Grade: Geometry (Semester 1) / Algebra 2 (Semester 2), Block Scheduling
Ninth Grade: Pre-Calculus
Tenth Grade: AP Calculus AB (Semester 1) / AP Calculus BC (Semester 2), Block Scheduling)
Eleventh Grade: Calculus 111/Multivariable Calculus and AP Statistics
Twelfth Grade: Linear Algebra and Differential Equations</p>

<p>We don’t follow a strictly linear path with our math courses. It’s open to a good degree of change/tweaking.</p>

<p>9th: Honors Geometry
10th: Honors Algebra II/Trigonometry
11th: Honors Precalculus/(optional AP Calculus AB/BC)
12th: AP Calculus AB/BC/AP Statistics/Multivariate Calculus & Differential Equations (for those who took AP Calculus AB or BC in 11th grade)</p>

<p>Although, there may be some students who entered 9th grade in Algebra II & Trigonometry/Precalculus/in one case AP Calculus BC, in which case they 1) have to enter honors classes on a special basis if they want to be admitted and 2) either take Math Electives (Linear Algebra, Calculus Applications, etc.) or classes at NYU to fulfill graduation requirements.</p>

<p>Accelerated at my school:
9) Alg. 2
10) Pre-cal
11) Calc AB
12) Stat.</p>

<p>Mine:
9) Geom. (Alg. 2 & Pre-cal credit-by-exam)
10) Calc BC (the grade I’m in)
Then I will be in an early entrance program:
11) Multivar. Calc/ Linear Alg.
12) Diff. Eq./???</p>

<p>Well it can vary alot so ill just say the honors and “gem” track
Honors (my track)
7th- pre alg. H
8th- Alg 1 H
9th- Geometry H / Alg. 2 H (block scheduling)
10th- Trig H / Pre calculus H
11th- Calc AB or BC … or Ap stats or duel enrollment
12th- Calc BC (if not taken) or Ap stats (if not taken) or duel enrollment</p>

<p>Gem
7th- alg 1 H
8th- geometry H
9th- Alg. 2 H/ Trig H
10th- Pre calculus H/ Math analysis H(class only for gem so they can be with hon, I know its stupid)
11th- Ap calculus AB or BC … Or Ap stats or duel enrollment
12- Ap calc BC (if not taken) ot Ap stats (if not taken or duel enrollment</p>

<p>This is our school’s most accelerated track (pre-AP/AP when applicable, of course):
7th: Algebra I
8th: Geometry
9th: Algebra II
10th: Pre-Calculus
11th: Calculus BC</p>

<p>That’s as advanced as it gets, unless you do some university program or something. Even though our school has around 2500 students, we don’t have linear algebra, multivariable calc, or differential equations :/</p>

<p>Hey please check out my thread!!! But the highest my school offers is CALC BC</p>

<p>It depends where you were placed in 7th grade, but the most advanced possible is
7th: Algebra
8th: Geometry
Freshman: Algebra 2 Honors
Sophomore: PreCalc Honors
Junior: AP Calculus BC
Senior: Multivariable Calculus and/or AP Statistics</p>

<p>(AP Stats can be taken any year, but is usually taken senior year)</p>

<p>9th- Algebra II
10th- Pre-cal H
11th- AP Calc
12th- Ib Math HL</p>

<p>Our selection is pretty limited.
8th Grade (You have to test for this): Algebra I
9th: Pre-AP Geometry
10th: Pre-AP Algebra II
11: Pre-AP Pre-Cal
12: AP Stat, or AP Calculus AB or BC</p>

<p>Normal advanced is for my current high school:</p>

<p>9th: Pre-AP Geometry
10th: Pre-AP Algebra II
11th: Pre-AP Trig/Pre-Calc
12th: AP Calc AB</p>

<p>AP Statistics is also offered and can be done whenever (usually junior or senior year but it isn’t impossible to do it before that).</p>

<p>Occasionally some kids here skip a grade in math and get to do Calc BC in 12th. I’ll be swapping schools to one that goes farther in math and my way of trying to be able to do the higher math courses in that school is attempt to self study a couple math classes and do multiple math classes a semester.</p>

<p>I think it starts in middle school, but I didn’t enter my school district until high school, so I don’t know how it works.</p>

<p>Before HS: Topics 1/2 (Algebra) taken in middle school, can bypass with recommendation
9th: Honors Topics 3/4 (Geometry)
10th: Honors 5/6 (Algebra II)
11th: Honors Pre-Calc
12th: AP Calc AB/BC, depending on teacher recommendation or AP Stats</p>

<p>At my school, you can move up if your parents bug the administration about it. Otherwise, you are stuck in this progression, even if you test out of it…sucks for students whose parents don’t make the effort. This is just my school though. It happens all the time on other campuses in my district. After Calc BC, students usually take AP Stats to keep their gpa up, as otherwise the only other math classes are Financial Apps and Algebraic Functions…</p>

<p>The most accelerated is:
9th: Honors Advanced Precal
10th: AP Calculus BC
11th: AP Stat or math at local college
12: Math at local college</p>

<p>The “normal” accelerated is:
9th: Honors Algebra 2
10th: Honors Advanced Precal
11th: AP Calculus BC or AB
12: AP Stat</p>
