@bwhs2021 They don’t do that. My friend (she’s a UChicago student) scored a 1440 on the PSAT as a freshman and not a SINGLE Ivy contacted her asking her to visit. I am more than sure it’s spam mail. No offense, but there is no reason that they would be interested in you as a freshman. Stating “you’ve never gotten below an A-” means nothing at this point in time. You haven’t taken a single AP. Also, why are you in such a rush to get to AP Calc? I have friends that are in AP Calc and they state that Precalc is crucial for AP Calc. I would not take Honors Precalc over the summer, unless you know it’s a super reliable online course. I honestly feel that this thread is slightly pointless, because from your previous posts, you seem very set in your ways. My opinion remains the same. I still wish you the best of luck. 
@ab2002 The PSAT score wasn’t the only thing the colleges were interested in. The questionnaire taken before the PSAT combined with my score put me on their radar. The Ivies have no set policy on what they look for, but for some reason they showed interest in me. I would appreciate if everyone could stop calling me a liar.
Thanks to everyone who posted something relevant. My counselor decided it would be best to stick to the plan I originally posted with AP Econ and AP Stats switched. Each semester of a DE course not offered by my school costs about $550, so I’ll just be taking the online math classes in senior year. Thank you again!
Just so you don’t think I’m making it up here is some info from a few colleges directly from their websites regarding dual enrollment coming from colleges that do accept dual enrollment.
Also here is an recent article that touches upon the issue https://www.edweek.org/ew/articles/2016/09/07/are-dual-enrollment-programs-overpromising.html
This belief was also told to me and my daughter by various admissions when we researched dual enrollment when she was in 10th grade. Another shared policy by some colleges is that any course taken that is needed to meet high school graduation requirements don’t receive credit. In my daughter’s case courses like her college English 1 and 2 would not receive credit since they replaced her high school junior year and senior year graduation requirement
This doesn’t mean they won’t accept transcripts from the colleges - those are required when applying. However when your accepted and decide to go there when they do a review and decide what high school college credits they will accept these are part of their policies. As to how they know, I don’t know. My daughter’s school only does dual enrollment at a college campus so I didn’t look into it that much.
Bentley University
College courses taken at the high school or another location besides a college campus will not be considered for advanced standing credit.
NYU
In most cases, courses were taken at a college/university, with college/university students, and taught by college/university faculty.
BU
The course must be part of the normal curriculum published in the college’s Bulletin.
The course must be open to enrollment by, and graded in direct competition with, regularly matriculated undergraduates at that institution.
Brandeis U
•Courses were held on a college campus.
•Courses were held in a classroom attended by regular college students (not a program for high school students).
•Courses were taught by college faculty (not high school adjunct faculty)
My daughter didn’t take the PSATs until 10th grade. However she got mail from plenty of colleges in 9th grade including ivy league schools. She did a survey in 8th grade for school from a college that we believe got her on a mailing list.
@bwhs2021 It’s completely relevant. YOU were the one that mentioned it. Also, the questionnaire has nothing personal about you. It’s questions about majors and what you’re involved in. You’re not in any way more special than the other 9th grader who did well. In fact, unless you got a 1520 the first time, there’s kids who are even more qualified than you are. I’m not trying to be rude, but you have unrealistic expectations on what college mail is. If they were really interested in you, they’d contact your school and get more information on you. An email, once again, means nothing. I have gotten mail from Brown, JHU, Dartmouth, Cornell and Penn. It is not just you.
@ab2002 The colleges did reach out to my school for additional information. Afterward, a Yale representative called me into the counselor’s office to talk about Yale’s chemistry program and to ask if I would be interested in sitting in on an organic chemistry class. Brown and Hopkins representatives talked to me about Biology and gave me a letter from the dean of students about the program. The word contact does not mean just mail or email. The whole point of that one sentence was to justify the rigor of my plan. It was not my question. I did not ask a question about scheduling to start a debate with people who have no evidence that I haven’t been about whether I have been contacted by colleges. So if we could stop talking about this, that’d be great.
What’s your (revised) 4-year plan looking like as of now?
@MYOS1634 It’s the same as the original post. Thanks for giving me ideas, but because DE classes outside of school are so expensive, I’ll only be able to take the two math classes in senior year without breaking the bank. I will take the subject tests you suggested. In fact, when I mentioned it to my Latin teacher, she gave me a prep book and told me to get an 800 and be done with Latin in high school so I don’t have to subject myself to poetry. Again, thank you for your help!
I agree that spending $550*2 is lot. Perhaps work and save the money (having a job year round would count as a solid EC by the way). See if there can be financial aid or something else from the college itself - as I’m sure you realize if you’ve looked at the price of college, $550 for a college course is a bargain and it sounds like it’d allow you to take ‘level appropriate’ classes at least in math.
