Albert Einstein, arguably the greatest mathematician/scientist of our or any time, was by no means an honor student. School was not to his liking, and he did not excel in his classes. But he was able in spite of (or perhaps because of) that “shortcoming” to successfully nurture an inner genius that was prolific, productive, More >

I haven’t used it, so I can’t help you there. Did you know, though, that there’s a demo cd you can get for only $3?
http://www.accelerated-achievement.com/CurriculumDemoCD.htm
Also, have you read this page about it?
http://www.hstreasures.com/a-squared.html
ADDED: Keep in mind that it’s “only” $99 because they don’t have to pay for all the paper and ink it’ll cost you to print off all the books. So, it’s not really $99 in the long run. Of course, if you can find the books at the library, that’ll reduce the costs.

If it sounds too good to be true, it usually is…
100.00 is alot of money to throw away. If I were you, I’d stick to a reputible co. like Bob Jones University Press, Alpha Omega, Abeka, etc. Just do a search on line and type in “christian homeschool cirriculum.”
God bless you,

A2 is marketed as being similar to and better than the Robinson Curriculum. It does include a huge variety of books and material and a student that follows the plan will probably receive a very decent education.
The facts are that A2 and the Robinson Curriculum are entirely different in theory and method.
Many people believe that the Robinson Curriculum is too good to be true at $195 for grades K-12 — one time. The only other expenses will be for Saxon math and a good printer, paper, pencils, etc….. We use the Robinson Curriculum— having done so for over 8 years. We know many people that use it too. The children are successful. They progress every day and build skill upon skill when it comes to learning how to study. The Robinson children have all gone to colleges and universities after studying according to the recommended method. The oldest is now a veterinarian, his closest brother is a chemist, their closest sister is completing graduate school in veterinary medicine, their twin siblings are in Nuclear Engineering and the youngest is completing his Bachelors Degree with only one and one-half years of campus study.
RC is inexpensive because the family believes it is very necessary to make a way for many children to be home-schooled that might not otherwise be able to due to financial restraints.
RC was produced for the public only after the Robinson family discovered how well their own method was working for themselves. The idea is that the student should first be taught to read by phonetics and that they should memorize all math fact functions zero through 15 before beginning text-book math. A student can and should complete an entire lesson of math without someone else teaching it to them. This is called Self-teaching. It is a wonderful method that enables the student to develop high level thinking skills at a very young age. The parent of the home-school should be available to encourage and supervise the students. And the parent should set an example by studying and reading while the children do the same. Help should be limited to reminding them how to find the information that they need. The children compute, write and read for up to 4-6 hours each day. Many choose to follow the RC guidelines of studying 6 days each week and through the summer. They take time off for vacations and family outings whenever needed. The average study time in a year is approx. 10 months. Studying on Saturdays and through the summer allows the child to retain the information and mastery of skills without losing momentum.
It is an amazing process that does really truly work. I have been very pleased with our inexpensive form of home-school. The money cost is low but the rewards are very high!
