<p>How important do you think it is to take reading classes?</p>

<p>I'm a current junior, and so far, I am illiterate. Though my counselor says it's fine, a lot of other people say that it's absolutely necessary to become at least literate, and that my counselor isn't too credible (which I somewhat believe, but only because college acceptances are difficult to understand). </p>

<p>I understand that it's important to be a "well-rounded" student, but I just don't like reading. Though attempting to read isn't hard for me, I'd prefer to take other courses (which explains my math-filled courses for senior year). Junior year I went through tons of scheduling difficulties, so I ended up with no reading course. </p>

<p>This summer, in order to be "well-rounded" I planned on taking a course on Understanding Words. But the thing is, I want to take an Intro to Multiplication.</p>

<p>If I have a really obvious "mathy" spike, is taking a reading really that important?</p>

<p>If this helps, I'm aiming for the top top, super-reach schools .</p>

<p>P.S - Sorry if this is in the wrong forum!</p>

<p>Colleges want at least SOME reading ability. it’s best to take the most challenging courses you can. you’ve done that in math (intro to multi–my friend is a senior at Duke and is taking that :O)</p>

<p>I wouldn’t be too worried, as you can type coherently and with correct grammar/spelling, which means you can write, which means you can read</p>
