[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Any acceptances on Economics course with 5 on Calc AB but not BC submitted?  My DC is having trouble with course scheduling and Calc BC won’t fit on his schedule Jr year.   it’s clear that Oxbridge-Durham-LSE-UCL-King’s require BC.  We have had a look at Leeds U and Man U and those institutions offer more flexibility on this particular requirement.  [/quote]

It is my understanding that your DC could take BC calculus senior year; s/he would just receive a conditional offer if extended a spot, meaning that s/he'd have to get a certain grade on the BC exam. You could also consider a Scottish Unversity which is much more flexible in terms of subjects studied; students study three at a time in the first two years and then narrow in the final two years (Scottish degrees are four years instead of the English three). It is not unheard of for students to wind up "majoring" in a subject that is different than the one they applied for. For example, Edinburgh is very well-regarded for economics, and you can combine it with another field such as history in a joint honours degree. [/quote]
