[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]With FCPS having an accelerated math track for some (Algebra in 6th, Calc in 10th) does this matter for college applications?[/quote] Assuming the question is for a stem major, yes, the accelerated math does matter. Not necessarily on its own but also what you do with that acceleration. Top stem school like Caltech and MIT are clear they want to see Calculus, Physics, Chemistry and to a lesser degree Biology. To take the highest level like both AP Physics C, the more math the better, taking Multivariable is not required but extremely useful for both Mechanics and Electromagnetism. AP Chemistry is fine with only Calculus BC. Same with linear algebra for computer science. Not to say that you’re screwed if you don’t have the advanced math, just that it makes life easier for many topics in other math adjacent subjects that competitive colleges want to see taken at the most rigorous level.
