Thanks, @momprof94
He’ll be taking AP Lang, AP US History, AP Physics I, as well as French 4 Honors and an honors art class that requires plenty of work outside class. He also runs XC and track which is year-round six days a week. Doesn’t usually get home until 6:00 each day from school after practice. So, yes, he has a packed schedule. Counselor just thinks he doesn’t NEED the BC Calc for what he wants to do or for the schools he is considering (Carleton, Grinnell, Davidson being just a few). I asked about the rigor question and the GC told me that he would still say he’s on the most rigorous track since he will be all honors and AP for all four years.
I was mostly wondering if he will need to take calculus for these majors…and/or if it would look good to take Stats. I peeked just at Carleton’s website and, even for bio and environmental science, all math requirements were stats.
