Getting into IvyLeague (Science)

<p>What classes should I take? I'm not in AP Biology because I don't really like that kind of science.</p>

<p>I am more interested in math based ones. Chemistry is fine. And I can selfstudy Science AP's too. But for some reason I'm taking AP U.S. History...</p>

<p>I'm in 10th grade in Precalc and rest are honor classes except for normal bio.</p>

<p>Can someone make a good plan for me?</p>

<p>If you wanted to get into Ivy Leagues you would take the most challenging courses available to you.</p>

<p>Furthermore, even if you don’t think you’re into it, you should give it a try. At the high school level, you have no idea what the higher levels of these sciences are like, and at high levels, it’s not like you are just crunching through formulas for anything(including math).</p>

<p>Also, we don’t even know what your school offers. You should be doing stuff being it interests you or challenging yourself because you want to, not because you want to get into Ivy League school. That you use Ive League is somewhat controversial because there are other good schools not in this particular sports league.</p>

<p>The Ivy league is nothing but an athletic conference of 8 schools, nothing special.</p>

<p>If you want to go to an Ivy League (or equivalent) school for a science, you should be taking the highest level of any and all sciences offered to you. If it was English, OK, but you should be taking a higher level science. They’ll look at that.</p>

<p>Take Calc I as a directed independent study class this summer, then take Calc II and III next year, then spend senior year taking differential equations, linear algebra, graph theory, discrete math, and abstract algebra! It’s easier because college classes are one semester long, so you can take four of them in a year and it’ll only take up two of your class slots! And most of those are lower-division undergraduate courses, so if you take them at a fourth-tier school with people dumber than you, you’re bound to do well.</p>

<p>P.S. This is kind of a joke … but I also know someone who actually did this.</p>
