How do EPGY courses relate to other courses?
A frequently asked question is whether students should remain in their math classes at school while participating in our program. Generally, the assumption underlying participation in EPGY is that school courses are not sufficiently challenging and that the student would prefer to move at a faster rate. However, the answer to this question depends on the student, the school, and whether he or she is receiving proper instruction from the math class at school. In order to first ensure that the content and presentation of the EPGY courses is suitable for a particular student, EPGY recommends that the student remain in his or her school math class for the first quarter of their participation. Furthermore, students should pull out of their normal mathematics courses only for those parts of those courses which are truly redundant, if possible. After they have completed several courses with EPGY, students will probably gain very little from the standard mathematics classes at their grade leve
