Why are you answering this question when you don't know the answer? I guess we don't know what we don't know, but still. The confidence of your response is preposterous in that it is totally wrong (annoyingly so).
From the Alberta Math Curriculum:
30-1
30-2
30-3
Do you see the blatantly obvious distinction? 30-2 is valid for entry into University.
30-3 is the equivalent of 33 from when we were kids.
30-2 is awesome for kids entering into Humanities and Education programs. I took math 30 twice, had a tutor and was in Renert Tutorials when I was a kid. I found it basically impossible. 30-2 would have been a godsend. Math 30 was the last math course I ever took - 30-2 will be the last math course my daughter ever takes because her math brain is identical to mine. |
Sliver this is the Alberta Ed course description not the reality. What a course is designed to prepare kids for and what universities require for entry are two different things. So when your daughters prof isn’t living in the early 80s, when you were in Uni and a wink wink nudge nudge got the job done, and can’t get her into the course she can try to do it in 3 1/2 weeks in summer school, which is not designed for people to take the course the first time but for those who are repeating, and we see the diploma results for those taking it for the first time are atrocious. I’d at least suggest the Pepsifree approach of 3 months online. However, since it doesn’t matter according to you I suppose your resignation that “when she needs it she’ll take it” as my win.
