[quote=Anonymous]My kid finished calculus junior year, got a 5 on the AP test, had a GPA well above 4.0, rigorous courses, 9 APs, 1500 SAT, great activities, yada yada yada. A dcum stereotype. Wanted to go into humanities, so did not take a BC or multivariable class senior year and took AP econ instead. Was rejected from all of the more competitive schools, including UVA, in spite of having 4 math credits that ended with AP calculus. Sibling with almost identical stats, except 1 year behind in the math sequence with AP Calc senior year instead of junior year, was accepted almost everywhere, including top 10 schools (no UVA ironically) I would have your kid take a math class senior year. Does your high school offer any higher level AP or dual enrollment classes, or are they limited to only IB classes?[/quote]
