help with choosing a math class?

Pre-College Issues High School Life

<p>hi everyone,
this is my first post but i've been lurking here for a while now :)
i am rather conflicted on which math class to choose for next year for my senior year.. my options at this point are between number theory, multivariable calculus, and linear algebra.</p>

<p>i am undecided at this point as to what i want to go into as a career. this year i took discrete mathematics, which is supposedly similar to number theory, leading me to lean away from this option.</p>

<p>any advice or opinions are appreciated! thank you.</p>

<p>bump? anyone with any advice? i’ve been getting rather mixed responses from students in my school whom i have asked.</p>

<p>I don’t know what you should choose, but your school is AMAZING. My school has nothing but AP calc and AP stat. I’d kill for those classes…take as many as you can.</p>

<p>They’re all excellent choices, since most people at even the very top schools don’t have post-Calculus BC experience.</p>

<p>I would take Multi Variable.</p>

<p>Take MV, because apparently you’re supposed to take that before Linear Algebra. I have no clue what “Number Theory” is.</p>

<p>Obviously multivariable</p>

<p>High school number theory sounds weak, but maybe it will be something advanced. Even so, it’s not especially useful if you don’t know what you want to do.</p>
