It depends on the academic structure in your school. Like what bbbeb points out, Geometry or Pre-Calculus might be next. Other schools might suggest Calculus or Trigonometry.

ok thanks everyone

Cheddar, there is no way he can jump from Algebra 2 to Calculus, unless its a elite school.
That would be a total disaster for all the people. Including teachers. But I understand what your saying. JJ, your in 9th grade, right?

Odds are, it's going to be Geometry or Pre-Calculus. Or possibly Trigonometry if you take it separate from Geometry.

Nope, just advanced in math.

At my school, it's weird. My dad and I went to the high-school orientation night, and it said they recommend taking Alg. 1, then Geometry, then Alg. 2, but I took Alg. 2 last year. So I'm winding up taking Geometry this year. After that, I think Alg. 3/Trig was next.

I just finished Algebra I and II, and I am going into Geometry, then Pre-calculus next year.

XD, I jumped from Algebra II to Calculus (my school had an advanced program for students who showed high skill in math. Algebra to Pre-Calc was the normal route, Algebra to Calculus was the advanced route).

We have no idea what kind of school JJROCKER goes to, so, who know, Algebra to Calculus could be an option.

You did? I wish I could have done that. Although my friend and I wanted to go straight to Calculus after Algebra II, but we were forced to go into Pre-calculus instead, which was basically a review of Algebra II.

It really depends on the school system and what they say. Case in point: My brother was also an advanced math student, and he was so advanced that he was one year ahead of his peers [in terms of math] that there was concern that he wouldn't have enough math credits to graduate (it would look like one semester was missing from his record), so he was forced to take pre-calc just to fill that requirement when he wanted to go to straight to Calc instead.

At OLHS, it goes Honors Geometry, Honors Algebra II/Honors Trig, Honors Algebra III/Honors Pre-cal, AP Calculus.

I'm not in high school yet, but I think I know the course of mine.

If you take algebra in middle school:

9th Geometry
10th Algebra II
11th PreCalculus
12th Calculus

If you take algebra I in high school:

9th Algebra I
10th Geometry
11th Algebra II
12th Trigonometry


I'm not too sure, but I think thats how my high school works.

Oh then I am in the first one except I am a year ahead of that so what would I take after Calculus?

You can't. Very few schools have an AP Advanced Calculus (mine is one of them) so they'd probably go like this:
9th Algebra II
10th Trig
11th Algebra III
12th AP Pre-Calculus

Look at the edit.

ok thanks. Sounds fun! I love math.

So you took Algebra I in 7th? Or are taking? Good man.

My school goes like this:

Algrebra I
Geometry
Algebra II
Pre-Calc
AP Calc AB (if you took Algebra before HS)

OR

Honors Algebra I
Honors Geometry/Algebra II
Honors Algebra II/Trig/Pre-Calc
AP Calc AB
AP Calc BC (if you took Algebra before HS)

Transitions in College Mathematics and AP Stats are also available after Algebra II.
