StaceyinLA Posted August 26, 2010 Share Posted August 26, 2010 Because they have no plans to come out with a Calculus anytime soon... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StaceyinLA Posted August 26, 2010 Author Share Posted August 26, 2010 as comprehensive as other pre-calculus programs? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jann in TX Posted August 26, 2010 Share Posted August 26, 2010 Some strong/natural math students will be able to test into College Calc after TT Pre-Algebra. I still suggest re-working a more traditional Pre-Calc program... so Pre-Calc or College Algebra (first semester of Pre-Calc). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corraleno Posted August 26, 2010 Share Posted August 26, 2010 Some strong/natural math students will be able to test into College Calc after TT Pre-Algebra. Wow, and I thought TT wasn't very rigorous! :lol: Jackie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiramisu Posted August 26, 2010 Share Posted August 26, 2010 I really don't know what I'm going to do after algebra 2. I'll be lost after that. I will have to outsource or try MUS for Pre-Calc and Calc. Would MUS Calc be a possibility? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OLG Posted August 26, 2010 Share Posted August 26, 2010 Thinkwell Calculus. It's the BEST of the Thinkwell Math programs since the EOC questions always line up with the lecture and you need not do ALL of it (three college semesters was what the original program was, maybe they have it broken down now.) Fun course per my ds! (He didn't use TT for PreCal.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StaceyinLA Posted August 26, 2010 Author Share Posted August 26, 2010 The reason im asking is because I'm having issues over TT or MUS, and I want to stick with whichever all the way. If I use MUS, that's not a problem. If I use TT, and I want ds to do a calculus, especially in light of TT's supposed weaker pre-calculus, I will have to find something else. This is getting ridiculous. I have never had such an issue making a decision in my life. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
creekland Posted August 27, 2010 Share Posted August 27, 2010 I've had two finish TT through Pre-Calc. My oldest did Chalkdust's Calculus at home without any problems. My middle son (just a junior this year) will be doing Life of Fred's Stats (perhaps augmented by things I bring home from school to assist with the calculator aspect), and then will do Calc 1 (most likely with Chalkdust) his senior year. Both tested EASILY into Calc via our local cc placement test after they finished with Pre-Calc. If they hadn't, I'd have gone with College Alg.

Of course, one wonders why such a student needed Pre-Algebra, but they probably compressed it into a week or two. :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
