Although I don't like how decisions when you're 14 and 15 can affect the rest of your life put me in the ultra pro streaming camp.
I took all AP and did SOOO much better because of it. Fast moving classes without tiny time wasting homework assignments. Just essays, midterms and finals, just like uni.
I am blessed to learn quickly, specifically in Math, and can't handle waiting for the kids who need more help. In fact it is a disadvantage to them to be in a class like me because I have no patience and some AP teachers didn't.
All kids regardless of skill level should have the same opportunities to receive a good education. In a lot of respects streaming helps this. It has its drawbacks I'll admit, but I wouldn't have it any other way.
