<p>I think you should either skip or not skip to prove that you’re good at math to yourself. Like an earlier poster said, taking calculus your senior year is par for the course, but it’s not uncommon for kids to go a year or two beyond that, so simply skipping ahead and taking calculus next year isn’t going to be all that impressive in and of itself. Now if you go ahead and skip and find that you excel at calculus as well, that opens up the door to do well on the AIME/USAMO/etc, which will be impressive. </p>
<p>If you find your math classes boring, you might as well go ahead and skip. Last semester I decided to take an analysis class since I was looking for a challenge and I also consider myself good at math. As it turned out, most of my classmates were sophomores. It ended up being a really hard class but I pulled a B+ in it, and more importantly, I learned a lot.</p>
