[quote=Anonymous]Taking Calculus BC after Calculus AB doesn't make sense, the content is completely overlapping, not sequential, just BC goes further and in more depth. I would second that he needs to be taking some math class senior year to be considered competitive for any top college/university, and that AP Stats makes the most sense, no matter what field he ends up in. Also it tends to be quite easy for kids that take it because they already took Calc in junior year and don't want to move onto multivariate/linear algebra, because the other kids in the class are often seniors who didn't think they could or wanted to hack calculus. My daughter was in a similar situation, on very accelerated math track without much interest in it eventually, doing well but in the end decided to take AB instead of BC calc junior year and focus on her other APs as well, and then AP Stat senior year. She got into 4 Ivys and as well as top SLACs. [/quote]
