[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Funny, I was slotted into non AP Calc senior year twenty years ago at a big three but demoted myself to Statistics. Mostly because I liked the Stats teacher better than the Calc teacher. stats was a great fit for me - it helped me understand some Econ and policy classes better on college. But I never took Calc, which in turn cut me out of some of the upper level stats classes.

What is she doing this summer? Could she do Calc summer school and then take stats her senior year, and only report the Calc summer school grade if it was good?[/quote]

Some typos here. I meant to say not having Calc cut me out of some upper level Econ classes. [/quote]

OP already said clearly that DD wants to focus on English and history in college. Unlikely to shoot for upper level college Econ classes. And asking the DD to take summer calc as a just-in-case class, when the DD isn't interested, is a big ask.

OP, just take the advice on which both the HS math department and the college counseling office agree. [/quote]
