[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't believe for one second that 1/3 of Princeton's students took AP Calc BC as a Freshman.[/quote] +1 [/quote] yeah, not even close. Only 20% of students nationwide take calculus at all in high school, and only 50% of high schools offer calculus. OP, your child is going to be judged in the context of their high school. This cockamamie plan won't help them get into a school that is a lottery ticket anyway. If you want to improve their odds, buy them a sabre or a foil. (KIDDING.) (UNLESS THEY REALLY WANT TO FENCE.)[/quote] Even better, buy them a rowing machine![/quote] Yep. My kid was on a very high math pathway (BC Calc in 10th then A+ on UMD math courses) and was WL / Reject at the schools I am sure you are looking at. [/quote]An a+ in UMD Math 340?[/quote]
