[quote=Anonymous]Several years ago, I asked our public school counselor what it took for her to check the 'most rigorous' box and I was surprised that she gave a specific answer. It included several specific AP courses, including BC by senior year. I'm sure schools handle this differently, but this is one data point. That said, if she looks more social sciency based on her transcript (lost of social studies APs for instance, and fewer science APs and no BC), I might suggest she lean into social science on her application. At most schools, it's easy to switch majors once you're there, and admissions officers may look differently at a social science/humanities students taking AB compared to a STEM student. My kid took BC but got a B, but had had high SATs and really leaned into a philosophy/poli sci interest statement and got into good schools. [/quote]
