Currently in Algebra 1: Next year your Course is Geometry: Level Will solve equations Simplify radicals Write Equations of Lines Simplified Proofs (some steps given) 3 Trigonometric Functions Pre-AP Recommend an A in Alg 1 Must have Strong Algebra Skills Be able to solve equations In depth proofs 6 Trigonometric Functions Must have working knowledge of definitions & be able to apply Moves at a faster pace

Currently in Geometry: Next year your choices are Math Models, Algebra 2 or Algebra 2 Pre-AP: Math Models Weak in Math In Algebra 1, you scored below an 80 for the course. You did not pass the Algebra 1 EOC. Your next course: Algebra 2 Algebra 2 Strong in Math 80 or above in Algebra 1 You passed the Algebra1 EOC. Algebra 2 Pre-AP Super Strong in Math 95 or higher in Alg 1 & Geom

Currently in Algebra 2: Next Year Following Year Pre-Calculus BC  Calculus BC AP (3 dual hours or 8 AP college hrs) Pre-Calculus AB  Calculus AB AP or Dual (7 college hrs) (4 college hrs) Intro to College Alg/  Pre-Calculus AB College Algebra (3 hrs) or Intro Stat Rea/ Statistical Reasoning Intro to Statistical Reasoning  Pre-Calculus AB Statistical Reasoning (3 hrs) or Intro Col Alg/College Alg Algebra 3  Intro Col Alg/College Alg or Intro Stat Rea/ Statistical Reasoning

Currently in Algebra 2: Which Pre-Cal should you take? You get honors credit for both! Pre-Calculus AB Made an 80 or higher in Alg 2 College plan includes math/science focus Prepares you for Calculus AB (4 college hrs) Pre-Calculus BC Made a 90 or higher in Alg 2 Level , 80 in Alg 2 Pre-AP Prepares you for Calculus BC (8 college hrs)

Currently in Algebra 2: Tired of hearing the word Algebra? Let’s switch to the world of Statistics AP Statistics Made an 85 or higher in Alg 2 For Math/Science majors in college Most college degree plans require a type of Stats Intro to Stats/Statistical Reasoning Made an 80 or higher in Alg 2 College plan does not include math/science direction The dual credit is Lonestar Math 1342; verify with your college that it will transfer to your major/degree plan. 1st semester is an Intro class to prepare you for Statistical Reasoning. You must make a 75+ to continue in Statistical Reasoning in the Spring semester.

Currently in Algebra 2: Intro to College Alg/College Algebra Made an 80 or higher in Alg 2 College plan does not include math/science direction The dual credit Lonestar Math 1314; verify with your college that it will transfer to your major/degree plan. 1st semester is an Intro class to prepare you for College Algebra. You must make a 75+ to continue in College Algebra in the Spring semester.

Currently in Pre Calculus: Pre-Calculus AB  Calculus AB AP or Dual (7 college hrs) (4 college hrs) Pre-Calculus BC  Calculus BC AP or Dual (7 college hrs) (8 college hrs) if you take Calc BC from PreCal AB, see the BC teacher to get topics you need to study over the summer AP Statistics , College Algebra, or Statistical Reasoning DO NOT take Algebra 3

AP verses Dual Credit Advanced Placement Course (AP) means you take the course at Kingwood High School. At the end of the school year students take a national standards based test, your score determines if credits are earned. AP credits are accepted at colleges across the nation. Dual Credit is taken like a regular course with a teacher at Kingwood High School. At the end of the course, students take a semester final to complete the college aspect of the course. The course is on your Lone Star College transcript. You need to verify that your 4 year college will accept the course for your degree plan. College Algebra – Lone Star Course MATH 1314 Statistical Reasoning – Lone Star Course MATH 1342 Pre Calculus AB or BC – Lone Star Course MATH 1316/2412 Calculus AB – Lone Star Course MATH 2413 Calculus BC – Lone Star Course MATH 2413/2414 Compare your future school to Lone Star: http://tccns.org/search/compareInstitutions
