I am going to switch my ds to TT. I am trying to figure what level he needs. I had him take the placement test for Math 7. I am a bit unclear. Is this test stuff they should have learned in 6th grade math? He did very well on it. How would you know if they need a higher level. It just says if they fall below the 10 or more and 8 or more correct, they should go to the lower level but they don't say anything about going up to a higher level. If they get all or almost all right, should they still do Math 7? I don't want to buy the wrong level.

I would go with math 7. My daughter is in 4 thfrade and has been working through math 7. There seems to be a lot of review each year.

I would take the next highest level placement test and see how he does. The placement tests are all available online, and you can print out whichever ones you want--higher or lower. IMO, TT is a great program, but at least 1 year if not more behind most math programs (i.e., Math 5 should be used in 3rd or 4th grade, etc.)
