I totally agree she's smart. But she doesn't enjoy math and doesn't believe me that it's math heavy. In addition, I'm worried it will hurt he chances of acceptance without calc or Econ and her "weaker" math score in this crazy college climate

Yes true but it sounds fun and cool experiences. It is more narrow though. Just may be boring. She would apply hospitality at the few schools who have it.. will see. Maybe she should do business and see where the chips fall?!

DD wanted business but we think it's too math heavy. (I posted before about this)
Thought about social entreprenuership

She has started to explore other options.

4.61 weighted,
34 superscore (30 math, 34 English, 36 Science and reading)

ECs' are average-- a few sports, some tutoring, work, and minor club

essay good

highest math AP Stat this year and pre calc last year
Took physics and bio (not AP) and AP Environmental but didn't pass AP test, got a B
has taken language up to 5 (A's)
various English (AP Lang, AP lit)

Sort of all over the place.. any ideas?

Said would consider Advertising or Hospitality... can always switch just need her to get in.
Also likes marine bio but doesn't want to pursue as a career.

Applying to big state schools
