Orleans Hanna Algebra Prognosis Test ALL students who successfully complete 6th Grade Accelerated Math are advanced in their mathematics course of study and are automatically placed in Pre-Algebra. Placement in Algebra as a 7th grader is a significant advancement in a student’s education, due to the abstract nature of the course, and requires special circumstances.
