Do colleges care if you take math classes past AP Calc?

Applying to College

Sorry I’ve been posting so much, I just have a lot of questions :slight_smile:

I took AP Calc sophomore year and got a 5 on the test. I am in a dual-enrollment program and by the end of senior year I will have taken calc 2, linear algebra and differential equations, multivariable calc, and computer science at the University of Minnesota Twin Cities. I got an A in calc 2 and I’m guessing I’ll well in the other classes, too. Will this look better than if I had gone a more traditional route and taken AP calc senior year, or is it all the same as long as you have taken calc?

It will look much better if you are applying to MIT or Harvey Mudd or Caltech. It will look better to any college. So, yes if you can handle this level of math in high schools it will help you in college admissions
