JoJosMom Posted February 27, 2019 Share Posted February 27, 2019 We used it several years ago. DD found it to be an enjoyable supplement, for a while. The system was still being upgraded and revised constantly, though, so once DD got about halfway through, it became a very choppy, rather arduous experience. I don't know what the current structure is now, though. I found their claim to be a full curriculum (and college, too!) to be a gross oversell.

In addition to private users (like homeschoolers) several huge school districts use it as their GATE math for middle school. I'm sure that has helped push them to polish things a bit. ETA: They don't claim EMF is college-level. It's an accelerated middle school curriculum that covers high school math in a way that exposes kids to math topics typically introduced at the college level. They do offer college level CS courses, but that is not EMF. It has been a much, much better fit for my dd than AoPS.
