[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]not taking calculus in HS will not hurt your child if she is not majoring in STEM. [/b] FWIW, I took calculus BC in HS and studied Computer Science in college. In my current job as cyber security engineer, I do NOT use calculus at all. I don't think any software developers use calculus in their day to day job at all.[/quote] You're really missing something here. A large number of colleges expect it. Not having calculus in HS will absolutely hurt a kid who plans on applying to competitive colleges. Not having calculus in HS doesn't hurt a kid who doesn't plan on majoring in STEM AND only plans on applying to very average colleges. [/quote]
