[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Counseling department at my DC's school was convinced AP Stat senior year looks like a copout. AP Stat as an elective is fine. But of course there are times where this is exactly the sort of release valve a student needs to maintain good grades senior year. Anyway, DC was convinced to take BC senior year and it worked out.[/quote] Same here. AP stats is only available as an elective rather than the main sr yr math. I've been told that admission officers see calc is as clearly more rigorous than AP stats. Personally, my guess is that it would make the most difference only at the most selective colleges (T20-ish), and they are all holistic in review. Obviously not all their students have had calc before arriving on campus, although a great many will. Beyond that, there will be a continuum down the rankings as to how much it matters for humanities majors. Once outside the top 50, probably not at all.[/quote]
