Dr. Jing, what about Peddie's math? I have heard that people who have done poorly in Peddie's own Cal BC class can get a 5 in AP Cal BC easily. Is that true?
回复 @GreatFall: Peddie's math is way better. I tutored 3~5 kids from Peddie. To get 5 in Calculus BC is not very hard. In my current class of BC, 70% can get 5.
回复 @7edu-Dr. Jing: Thanks for the infor. I also heard Peddie's math is pretty good, both in terms of curriculum and teacher. Why so many kids still need outside tutor? Is it because of the course difficulty so that they need tutor to maintain A in school?
回复 @GreatFall: Students looking for a tutor have a variety of reasons such as: 1) spending least amount of time to get A; 2) learning different ideas in solving problems; 3) preparing for math contest, which is taught in school; 4) accelerating pace (most of my tutees) such as they can start precalculus in 9th grade....etc
回复 @7edu-Dr. Jing: thanks for the insights. I heard Peddie's PCH is indeed rather tough so lots of students drop to MPS H2 or PC Advance.
