Completed Algebra 2 & Saxon Geometry:
If your student completed Algebra 2 (any publisher) AND Saxon Geometry with an 80+ on the last 5 tests, they should be ready for Shormann Precalculus with Trigonometry. Take the placement test to verify: Precalculus Placement Test
However, because Saxon Geometry does not integrate algebra, they have likely lost fluency in the algebra skills that are required to learn precalculus. If they don't pass the placement test, they should take Shormann Algebra 2 with Integrated Geometry to develop fluency in both the algebra and geometry skills needed for precalculus as well as learn all the concepts required for the PSAT, SAT, ACT, and the College Algebra CLEP exam which earns 3 college credits.
Completed Algebra 1 & Saxon Geometry:
If your student completed Algebra 1 AND Saxon Geometry, but has not taken Algebra 2, they should take Shormann Algebra 2. Take the placement test to verify: Algebra 2 Placement Test
However, because Saxon Geometry does not integrate algebra, they have likely lost fluency in the algebra skills that are required to learn Algebra 2. If they don't pass the placement test, they should take Shormann Algebra 1 with Integrated Geometry to develop fluency in both the algebra and geometry skills needed for Algebra 2.
