kiana Posted October 25, 2013 Share Posted October 25, 2013 I am confused. Why does the lack of tests mean you can't put geometry on there? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Santi Posted October 25, 2013 Author Share Posted October 25, 2013 I don't know how else to give her a grade. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maize Posted October 25, 2013 Share Posted October 25, 2013 She will have covered a lot of Geometry in her Saxon books, I would think you could take her grade from that and combine it with some online tests or quizzes, or just give her a grade based on her chapter assignments. Alternatively you could list her courses as integrated math 1, integrated math 2, etc. for the Saxon and Geometry. Really you can assign grades and course titles however you want, but I would indicate in some way that Geometry has been covered. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miss Marple Posted October 25, 2013 Share Posted October 25, 2013 I would just finish up whatever she hasn't covered using the McGraw text. She will need geometry for her later math courses so I would definitely have her finish. You could also use Khan Academy - free and covered by subject. As far as the transcript goes: if she completed geometry between 9th and 12th, you should put it on there. The unis want to see what the student has done in those 4 years. If she completes it before 9th, you have a couple of options. Either don't list it at all and the colleges will assume she did it early because of her advanced math, or have a separate listing area where you add typical high school courses that were completed earlier. All of my boys did algebra 1 earlier than 9th. One son did most of his geometry earlier but finished in 9th while working in algebra 2. None of the colleges we've applied to want to see anything before 9th so I just don't list anything whether it was high school level or not. I think private colleges might be more interested in high school level coursework done before 9th. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Julie of KY Posted October 25, 2013 Share Posted October 25, 2013 If she completes geometry during the high school years, then put it on the transcript. Use the above suggestions for assigning a grade. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kiana Posted October 25, 2013 Share Posted October 25, 2013 You could give a grade based on the chapter tests and daily work. If it's at all a recent edition, you can get chapter tests online which are multiple-choice -- for example, here's the 2005 one -- http://www.glencoe.com/sec/math/studytools/cgi-bin/msgQuiz.php4?isbn=0-07-845773-4&chapter=15&headerFile=6&state= Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
