[quote=Anonymous]Many engineering programs will have an English requirement that is engineering-specific, as you suggest, though that really depends on the school. I suspect your son is fine for Case, RIT, RPI. I have no idea about UMD. I have an engineering major at a top private university who didn't take any AP English (or AP foreign lang either), but did take both APUSH and AP Euro, among 8 total weighted courses, including multivariable calc. I think AP history courses, if taught well, are a good option for the reading and writing experience. As for how that plays in admissions, view of the transcript is holistic - you don't need top rigor in all subjects, but it depends on what else you are taking.[/quote]
