<p>Although I am not a parent , however I believe this thread will have better advice.Next year I will as a freshman be taking Calc BC. However the county only has Differential equations and AP stats after. I don't intend to take AP stats. And I also want to concurrently take Multivariable and Linear Algebra, which the county does not offer. My question is how would you go about trying to set up a Multivariable and Linear Algebra class which the board? People who are teachers and parents who have gone through similar events can you share your experiences? Any clarifications will be provided.</p>
<p>Your question is confusing. Is there a community college or dual enrollment opportunity where you live to take them? Also, why skip stats? You have to take it for a lot of college math major programs, so you might as well…</p>
<p>Dual enrollment is only for seniors according the the university policy and most of the classes happen at the same time as school classes. The reason to skip stats is because Ap stats is the equivalent of Stats100 , which allows me to spend more time on other classes suchs Muti-variable. It’s true that you have to take it for alot of math programs, however nearly all of the stats classes at college are at the 400 level <a href=“https://ntst.umd.edu/soc/201401/STAT”>https://ntst.umd.edu/soc/201401/STAT</a> and the only stats class the school system offers is AP stats. I would take stats if the school offered a similar class to the post- Ap Stats classes.</p>
<p>I think your question is best directed to your school’s gifted/talented coordinator, assuming there is such a person. That person should know what sorts of resources are available to you. </p>
<p>@cnp55 thank you.</p>

High school? College?</p>
<p>High school.</p>
<p>I believe Stanford has some advanced classes online. You may look into this or other online math classes. </p>

Multivariable calc and linear algebra are generally not full year classes. It’s typical to take them sequentially in different semesters/trimesters, often during the same year. When I was in HS, I was in a similar position, with reaching the maximum level of math offered at my HS before my senior year. I called the nearest college (SUNYA) and setup enrolling in MVC and LA at the college while I was still in HS. Being popular courses, there were several times available, which helped to coordinate with classes at my HS. I had a driver’s license at the time, and my mother was a homemaker who didn’t use the car most days, so driving back and forth between HS and college was not a big deal. However, if you are a sophomore in HS, travel may be more complicated. </p>
<p>I was going to say to checkout epgy.stanford.edu, but they seem to have abandoned the online program for college level math</p>
<p>Also look at John Hopkins CTY- center for talented youth. My son took linear algebra through CTY in HS. It was a self paced class with lots of opportunity for contact with the professor teaching the class in the form of skype and phone calls, etc.</p>
<p>Is there a nearby community college where you can take typical college sophomore level math (multivariable calculus, linear algebra, differential equations, discrete math)?</p>
<p>Although UMD STAT 400 has a high level course number, its prerequisite of UMD MATH 131 or 141 is calculus 2, which you should have with AP calculus BC.</p>
