Ditto, 7th grade in Colorado. Yeah, they called it advanced, but they called everything advanced. You know the drill: grade school math is always "advanced," grad school math is always "introductory."

True that. I finally learned some basic algebra in grad school. I also learned just how far from advanced I really was.
