Question So I'm in honors math for my 8th grade year.
My teacher said if I pass when I go to high school I will be in a sophomore math.
So if I do good I will be in a junior math when I'm a sophomore.
When means i will finish math a year early.
Then what? She said something that I can Study math at a community collage.
Buy what about that extra period I'm not taken at school. Do I get to go home?
I know its a ways away but I'm wondering
Thanks!
Answer Alex,
Normally advanced students in High School Math take advanced courses for college credit at their high school. In other words, As a sophomore you might take Advanced Geometry/Algebra, as a Junior you might take Trigonometry and as a Senior you might take Applied Math.
Most high schools require a 4 hour class schedule if all credits are earned so that students may go to work in the afternoons and/or take college classes.
These things vary from state to state, country to country. You need to discuss this with your teacher and or counselor in order to fully understand what they mean.
Best wishes and congratulations on being such a good math student!
