Is this a full curriculum?

What order does LoF generally work? Is it beginning algebra and then geometry or both Algebra programs before Geometry?

I am trying to find a Geometry geometry program for my teen daughter to help her get a better understanding then what we went through this past year. She finished Algebra 1 using TT and when I went back this year to review her with the Chap 1 test, she seemed to not had retained ANYTHING!

I am in need of a Math program so she can have a much better understanding then what she received from TT.

Thanks!

As I recall, the Life of Fred author recommends doing both Algebra courses before Geometry.

Does or would it count as a full Math credit for a highschooler or should it be supplemented?

Yes, LOF geometry is a full credit (full year) of high school math.
