<p>S would not have been accepted at any of the engineering schools he applied to or the one he is attending without good grades and 4 years of English. Check the requirements for the schools you are applying to - the website should indicate the minimum high school requirement - if not call. Most likely you will need or even want to repeat the Calc sequence for engineering. If you can drop another class (not English) to do better in Calc then that would be the best, I would think.</p>
<p>I second DO NOT drop English, drop either BC, Stats, or Psych to make your life a little easier - if need be.</p>
