Out of grade eight, you were placed into a course. There were no "remedial" or "advanced" labels. Some people just went through a trac that started with Biology II and ended up with Physics, others started with Bio I and ended up in Chemistry. Same for math and english. Everything else was combined.
This is a very large high school. I'm amazed they were able to offer what they did. I think they did a nice job, you got what you needed, and if you wanted you could take Physics, AP English, or Calculus.
Shades, are you an elitist if you took advanced courses? No. Are you an elitist if you feel you are somehow better than the next guy cause you listened to a Calculus lecture? Maybe.
