My daughter is really enjoying it so far going through 5th grade math and working into algebra.


It's 5x as expensive as AoPS Beast Academy which trains champions of math contests. (AoPS gets more expensive for the courses after Algebra)

A magazine is going to hurt a lot less than a laptop when it becomes a projectile during an accident or extreme turbulence.
