I'm too far ahead in math. What do I do?

<p>I'm a junior right now, and I've taken all of the math classes in my school. I'm in AP Calc BC right now, which is the absolute highest math class available in the school.</p>

<p>I really need 4 years of math, so obviously I plan to take math at a college next year.</p>

<p>I decided to take math at "Appletree Community College." In their course catalog, it has all of the optional classes for "high school escapades" students (the program where hogh school kids take college classes.)</p>

<p>The highest class that I'm allowed to take is PRE-CALC at the college. I took precalc in TENTH GRADE. It says that in order for a high school student to be placed in a 1000 level math course (I wanna take linear alg), they need to score atleast a 4 on the AP Calc BC exam, which I will not have my scores for until summer.</p>

<p>Registration is in two weeks.</p>

<p>How do I enroll in one of these 1000 level courses if I don't have the required AP score? I tried calling appletree, but she said that I needed to request my AP scores early (which would be impossible, seeing how the test isn't until May) and send them in.</p>

<p>How is this going to work? Should I look into a different college to take it at, or should I drop it all together?</p>

<p>you can take math over the internet via stanford EPGY or illinoisnetmath.</p>

<p>Talk to your high school counselor. He or she should be able to facilitate your enrollment in the comm. college course you want.</p>

<p>Also, colleges ought to be okay with you only taking three years of math if you've reached the highest level. My D took proof geometry in middle school, and so went on to higher level classes in high school, and I was concerned because of college requirements that often explicitly included geometry. Her counselor told us not to sweat it, even though the middle school courses aren't listed on the high school transcript, because colleges are used to seeing kids accelerate in math.</p>

<p>You should take multicalc before linear algrebra.</p>

<p>take multivariable.</p>

<p>try Johns Hopkins CTY or Stanford EPGY. many major universities have online classes as well.</p>

<p>I'll be on the same situation next year (I'm a sophomore, taking pre-calc)</p>

<p>Just try another community college nearby, or try something else. At our school, we have the option of sending kids the the State Uni, and other high schools for classes. Could try that</p>

<p>Swallow shampoos.</p>

<p>I took multivariable calc 10th grade, nothing 11th grade, and I'm taking EPGY Number Theory right now, but I didn't report it in any way. I was accepted to MIT.</p>

<p>If you've taken everything you can, it really doesn't matter if you don't have 4 years.</p>

<p>Take multicalc, then linear algebra.</p>

<p>you can use JHU CTY Distance Education and do it online.</p>

<p>and everyone else is right, you're supposed to take Multivariable before Linear.</p>

<p>I'm doing AP Calculus BC online this year (sophomore). (I'm in your boat, my school will offer our version of Algebra II to 30 people for the first time next semester and the will be the highest math class other than the girl who took Pre-cal online this semester, the guy taking it next semester, and myself.) I'd suggest you look at a 4 year university that offers distance ed courses or would allow you to come on campus. I'm going to take at least Multivariable this summer. The reason I would recommend this over EPGY/JHU/CTY is because you may have some placement trouble with the others. (I'm also not sure if any of the latter offer summer course per se.)</p>

<p>You already have 4 years of math by any reasonable standards. So if you don't really want to take any more, you shouldn't have to. Finally, many community colleges and some 4-year schools will allow you to take a "credit-by-examination" test for credit. It's kind of like you take the final for the class and if you pass you get credit most of the time with no grade. I would also make sure to call the college person back and explain to them that "early scores" are not possible. Contacting the course instructor(s) may also be a good option.</p>

<p>Good luck!</p>

<p>I took AP Calc BC junior year as well, I just took AP Stats for my senior year.</p>

<p>Talk to your counselor. I am in a similar situation with Psychology dual enrollment next year, and it seems to have worked out.</p>

<p>I took AP Stat in 12th after Calc BC. I also watch MIT OCW videos for fun :)</p>

<p>is it bad that i havent taken any calculus? my school doesn't offer it lol.</p>

<p>Some of you guys are so freakin' lucky. At our school you can only take one math a year. So the highest is Calc AB. I would of loved to cram geometry and algebra 2 together my freshmen year and then by my senior year take a math class at a community college.</p>

<p>yeah i took calc ab soph calc bc junior and now i am in ap stats. It feels weird and like a demotion but whatev</p>

<p>Will colleges like it better if u finish Cal BC or AB as a junior? Im thinking about doing pre-calc online if i dont get into ncssm</p>
