<p>The Sal at one of the schools here four years ago decided to skip Calc her senior year for several reasons, one of which was her acting. Graduated with a 97 GPA unweighted and was accepted to Yale. I don't know how she explained it to them but it worked for her. She graduated from Yale this year with a 3.9 and far more experiences in drama than anything her Yale calc class offered her. Only problem is she struggled more to get the A in calc at Yale than in any other class she took. Your GC could speak to how you creatively found a way to take the hardest academic classes while still pursuing your passion when this conflict came up.</p>
