[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]FWIW I just don’t think there’s any one size fits all answer. I am a lawyer, majored in English at an Ivy (admittedly a while ago). Math was just never my thing and it didn’t make a difference for my college acceptances (well, I didn’t apply to MIT). Even now, there is no way that only the top math kids are getting into the most selective colleges (other than MIT, et al.). I just don’t think it’s worth forcing higher level math for the sake of college admissions. If a kid has the interest and ability, absolutely, and of course it can be helpful to get some tutoring help if a kid could use it. But I wouldn’t focus on math on the premise that it makes a difference for college admissions, for a kid who isn’t stellar in math/not that interested. [/quote] This is helpful thank you [/quote]
