High school coursework!

<p>Will I get automatically rejected if I don't take Calculus in high school? I am thinking of applying to Wharton and I'm currently taking Precalculus (junior year). If options if I don't take Precalculus would be trigonometry or accounting/statistics (I THINK).</p>

<p>THANKS IN ADVANCE!</p>

<p>PS: I'm a Puerto Rican</p>

<p>For Wharton, I’d say not taking Calculus in school is pretty much setting yourself up for a rejection.</p>

<p>Depends on what your school offers. If you are unable to take calculus, then it wouldn’t count against you. Also, your minority status could potentially negate it a bit.</p>

<p>Also, Wharton is like ummm freaking WHARTON so taking Calculus and then get rejected either would be not a bit dissapointing but A LOT! My second choice is Georgetown and after that, well, study here in Puerto Rico and then make my MBA outside. REALLY CONFUSED!!!</p>

<p>Look at “High School Transcripts” [Penn</a> Admissions: High School Preparation](<a href=“http://www.admissionsug.upenn.edu/applying/hsprep.php]Penn”>http://www.admissionsug.upenn.edu/applying/hsprep.php)</p>

<p>Then calculus it is! -.-</p>

<p>Good choice! :P</p>

<p>Also, Wharton recommends that you take the Math Subject tests…just something to consider…</p>

<p>What about if you take the BC Calc AP then get a 3? Does anyone know if that’s a killer? (For some reason, I ended up with a B in the class, I go to a hard school, just screwed up towards the end).</p>

<p>What’s best? B in Calc or A in something easier? Even though BOTH ARE BAD, I know.</p>

<p>@samonouh: Thanks for the mentioning the subject tests, I didn’t know. I’ll consider it for sure!</p>
