Thank's for such detailed responses. Still not sure if I will buy the entire package, but I am going to get some of it. Thqnks again, ladies.:-)

Can you help me justify the cost? ;-)

Update. ..dd received her scores today! She did great!

Thanks for the empathy luckymama and creekland. The customer service rep said i should get an e-mail in 10-14 business days informing me of their decision and the reason. : /

My daughter did not receive her scores. We called and they said there was a problem with her test. It has been submitted for review. They did not tell us why, but on test day they said she had a problem with her picture. Several kids were told the same thing. Some were allowed to test. Some were not. After shaking them all up right before the test, they started their test later than everyone else's and ended up finishing 1 1/2 hours after her cousin who was waiting for her. They are going to let us know something in 10-14 business days. She may not get her results ever! Daughter is upset and so am i. They said there is nothing we can do about it. Very frustrating!

Thanks cbollin for so much information! Wow! Really causing me to think hard about purchasing the US2. Still concerned about the cost and also the amount of time involved with it. Really wanting dd to have more time to do some of the things she wants to do this year such as her music.:-) Also appreciate your help julie. Any other information is appreciated. This may not be allowed, but what kind of literature selections are suggested? Not looking for a full list just is it more americanlit or british or mixed? Thanks so much!

Thanks for such an in depth reply crystal. What do you think of the speech component? Janet, I was thinking of doing separate econ and English because dd has already finished the history. Not sure how to do the english though. Ideas are welcome. :-) Thanks again, ladies!

Sorry for the double post.

We have done the previous years and wondering if year 4 is worth the cost? Thanks, Kristin

Thanks Kiana and Teaching! Such an easy to understand explanation that we both are wondering how she got this far in math?! Thanks again!

Can someone explain the permutation in lesson 50, problem number 2. Lesson 45 explains permutations but this problem is not worked as explained in that lesson as far as I can tell. Please help my poor daughter. : ) The problem: How many positive integers less than 150 are there such that all the digits are odd? Thanks

Doing U.S. history this year. We have done AHL and World. I grade math, chemistry, and easy grammar daily. I also go over any questions they had to do in any of the other subjects. I want to try and clear up any problems as soon as possible. Our Friday meetings are more of a catch up and review session. Has worked really well for my family.

How do I fill it out on line? Will I get a form in the mail with a website and instructions? When I go to the ss site, I can't see anywhere I am suppose to click on for that. Thanks for all your help!

I have usedthe old points plan and the new points plus. I like both. I have lost 30#'s on the points plus program. I started March 1st. A little difficult at first maybe, but very easy to stay on in my opinion. For the first time I feel like I can eat this way for life. Very easy to stay on because fruit and most veggies cost zero points. Can't get that with calorie counting.; )

I am the legal guardian of a child receiving benefits and have some questions as how the money is to be spent and accounted for. I recently discovered i may not be doing it right. If you can offer help please pm me.

We have been using Apologia for science. Is doing biology, chemistry, adv. biology, and physics a good plan with this science? That has been my plan, but Indiana has gone core 40 and I need to know if this will meet that core 40 requirement? Then there is math. We have been using Saxon. They have completed Algebra I, are completing Algebra II, but do we go on into Advanced Math or do a year of geometry. I am so confused on this. Some say the advanced math will finish up their geometry credit while others say they need that year of geometry. Help!

Oops! Sorry, didn't see that thread. Wow, lots of info there.

This was what I was thinking of doing, too.

Has anyone used this? What did you think?

Could someone give a link to Mr. Rosenhoff or contact information, please. Thanks.

Thank you! This was very helpful. Do you tutor?:) Thanks again.

How do you know when to use "se" at the end of a word? for example: Levantarse? Hope this makes sense.

So, I'm still unsure, but I'm leaning toward taking 2 years for advanced math. Would I be able to give a geometry credit after that? Seems I've heard that somewhere:confused:

My dd did Saxon Algebra I in 8th grade and is now doing Algebra II for her 9th grade. She is doing okay in this course, but I think it might be nice to have her do a year of geometry with teaching textbooks for a little break maybe. Then either go on with teaching textbooks and do their pre-cal or switch back to Saxon's Advanced math. My other option would be to take 2 years to do the Advanced math. She is an average math student and wants to be a nurse. What are your thoughts?
