[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. DD is a strong humanities and English student (good GPA because of her non-STEM classes with Math being the lowest and anomalous grade) so she will be targeting top 25 schools and UMich, UVA, and maybe UCLA. She will not be applying to any Ivies. We're just concerned whether Statistics vs. calculus will be viewed as a negative by strong schools because they believe it indicates that the student was not willing to push themselves within the offered curriculum? Or do the top schools not care about the Math track because the student is clearly a history/English/humanities and foreign langauge kid. [/quote] The problem is the current B- in pre-calc. It indicates that calculus could be a real struggle. It is better to get an A in stats than a B- or worse in calculus. The OOS competition is very tough at Michigan, UVA and UCLA. Near perfect grades are the first criteria then rigor. [/quote]
