Should Sal take Algebra II next year or Geometry? A friend who is a high-school math teacher recommends the continuity of Algebra II, but Geometry will be on the dreaded standardized test he will need to take to get into the local community college's Dual Enrollment program.

No thoughts or ideas, just comments~
My son is finishing up Geometry right now. He did the classes in the same order as our local highschool, and the same way I did them in school~ Alg 1, Geometry, Alg 2.
We have used Saxon math, but I wanted a full Geometry year under his belt so we went with Jacob's Geometry with the Callahan DVDs this year. I know lots of folks love it, but I have NOT liked it at all. Anyhow, the Callahan stuff recommends Alg 1, Alg 2, then Geometry to keep the flow of Algebra going.
Like I said...no ideas, just comments.

Thanks, Susan. That's what I need. Current discussion involves Algebra II this summer and fall and starting Geometry in the spring.
