Must I have an actual geometry course listed?

College-Prep Math (must have Algebra II and Geometry) 3

We're using Saxon for math right now and it has the geometry built in but no separate course. Do I need to look at a separate geometry? And when would geometry be done? Is it still between Algebra I and II? I was all set to just keep trucking with Saxon.

Colleges are familiar with "Integrative Math" courses. You don't have to switch from Saxon if that's the only reason.

No reason to change.

Janet in WA listed her dss' math credits this way:

Alg. 1 with Geometry--1 credit
Alg. 2 with Geometry--1 credit
Pre-Calculus with Geometry--1 credit
Also, high schools which use Saxon tend to just list Alg. 1, Alg. 2, PreCalculus, and Geometry, awarding 4 credits.
