The basic difference is that with Algebra, there is usually one specific way to solve an equation; you apply the formula, and boom – there you go. With Geometry, there can be a number of different theorems that you can apply to solve a problem. For kids that really like the one-way structure of Algebra, that can throw them off.

You’ll probably do fine, especially if you understand the concepts behind lower math and Algebra. Don’t let the different way of doing things throw you – Geometry isn’t really that hard 🙂

I mean, you won’t even have to pay attention until about midway through the year- you start off doing lessons about points, lines, planes, etc.

Don’t listen to those people. Yeah, algebra is more left-brained and geometry is more right-brained (or vice versa, I’m not really sure), but if you’re good at math it really shouldn’t be any trouble for you.

The only part I genuinely didn’t like about the class were the proofs- they weren’t hard, I just hated doing them.

Have fun- high school is way more fun than middle school (Class of ’10 wootwoot!!! lol).

All the best.

except you have to memorize thereoms and postulates
