[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Unless [b]she is applying to top 25,[/b] three is usually fine especially since it’s the three cores (and having AP CS doesn’t hurt for sure). [/quote] This wasn't our experience--when asked reps from top 50 SLACs consistently encouraged DD to take 4 years of science even though she had an interest in international relations. They wouldn't say she HAD to do it, but when pressed they said the 4th year of science looked better than the other things she was considering (which were high level courses). BTW she was strongly advised NOT to do an abbreviated schedule senior year. Said it often raised questions/concerns.[/quote] +1 The main problem here is the internship—that idea is really bad. That’s what summers are for. It looks lazy to not take a full schedule your senior year.[/quote]
