[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why do people keep saying there’s no chemistry at Walls? Everyone at Walls takes chemistry. There’s no AP chemistry, but that’s a completely separate question.

Also, the people who are telling you that your kid needs to do two years of college in high school just to get in to a competitive STEM program are lying, usually because your anxiety makes you more likely to buy their services.[/quote]

VT- a legit top 30 in CS- admits 63% of applicants (engineering OOS isn’t available). You don’t need the 2 years of college math to get in. You probably do need AP Calc AB.[/quote]

OK but the reality is that many kids going to VT have taken college math, like the kid I know, and it gives them a huge advantage over the other kids and better grades.

Sure, those kids who have not taken the courses can make up the grades later but if you are aiming for medical school or top grad school, you don’t have the luxury of a mediocre freshman year.[/quote]
