<p>Very nicely planned out, however you are underestimating Physics C. Might want to learn Calc BC before self studying for the e & m. Pretty sure UMCP would accept you if you are hell bent on finishing all your exceptations</p>

<p>Your opinion is much appreciated. I’m not underestimating Physics C, though - I’m going to learn AB,BC, and Multi VariableCalc this summer. The reason I’m only taking the AB exam next year is because I’m aiming for state AP scholar.</p>

<p>SAT in 10th grade could easily go up by Fall Senior year, but even with a 2k I think you’re in</p>
