[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]None of the elite colleges (Ivies, Stanford) require students who are [b]clearly arts/humanities majors [/b]to take calculus. If you state your interest in a STEM field, they expect calculus and lots of AP science on the transcript. However, those students aren't expected to have lots of advanced literature classes. So an arts/humanities student will have higher expectations on their essay and classes beyond AP English plus editing the school literary journal and exceptional recs from art/humanities teachers. [/quote] Colleges don't accept or reject you based on your presumed major.[/quote] You're right, there are no separate admissions by likely major. But, an elite engineer looks very different than an elite humanities student. Admissions officers, teacher recs, and alumni interviewers all know the difference and they rate the students accordingly.[/quote]
