A few points:
- Just because your daughter does well in other advanced courses (history, english, etc.) doesn't mean she will do well in advanced math. This is a trap many students fall into because of over zealous parents and/or lazy counsellors.
- I basically got straight B's in high school because I got A's on the tests and didn't do the homework. Math, in particular, annoyed me because I grasped it very quickly, and I felt that if I understood the concept after doing 4 problems, why should I have to do 50 more for homework?
- Some things aren't rleated to intelligence/ability. My brother in law just barely graduated high school despite being extremely bright. For whatever reason, he had no motivation in school, didn't study, didn't do homework, and his grades were horrible. No reflection on his ability or smarts.
