[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You can look at the Common Data Sets and/or Enrolled Student Profiles (both found in different places on each school's website) to see what proportion of applicants and/or entering class took calculus. My oldest was in MCPS and we dropped him down a level in MS so he took Alg 1 as a freshman. For his senior year we had him double up on precalc and AP Stats. He got into a top 20 SLAC.[/quote] Percent of the enrolled class who had calc is not included in the Common Data Set. It is likewise uncommon to find in a college's class profile.[/quote] I don't know how common or uncommon it is - we found it at a bunch of schools our DS was considering. Here's one example: https://www.wesleyan.edu/admission/apply/class-profile.html#:~:text=Profile%20of%20Students%20Offered%20Admission%20for%20Fall%202023&text=85%25%20have%20taken%20calculus,equivalent)%20of%20one%20foreign%20language[/quote]
