<p>My high school has no more math classes I can take for my senior year. I'm thinking of going to a community college to take a math course, but I'm not sure if I'll be able to get in. Will this prevent me from being accepted to schools that require 4 years of math? Also, will it look bad on my application next year?</p>
<p>The math classes I have taken are:
Freshman year: Algebra 2
Sophmore year: Trig and AP Stats
Junior year: Calc BC</p>
<p>People skip math their senior year (or senior + junior year in 1 case I’ve seen) and still get accepted. Honestly, if you’ve done BC, it’s enough to satisfy your “I can do math” portion of the application. Nonetheless, taking a CC class would be great and show extra initiative, which always helps.</p>
<p>Four years of math stops with Trig in sophomore year. You’ve done 6 years of math, as they start counting from Algebra 1. </p>
<p>Try and take a class at a local college. If you can’t, I recommend: asking your Calc teachers if they want a regular assistant AND explaining why you didn’t take a further math course in your application.</p>
<p>Have you looked into online courses?</p>
<p>If you’re planning on going into a math-related field like engineering, it’s advisable to take some kind of math in your senior year so your math skills stay sharp. Otherwise, the lack of math as a senior won’t matter.</p>
<p>ok thanks. right now i’m still trying to get into a cc for a math course, but it doesn’t look like it’ll be happening</p>
<p>If nothing else, can you tutor kids in calc to stay current?</p>
<p>If you are considering engineering, then look into Linear Algebra. It’s an option to multivariable calculus, the usual next stop after AP Calc.</p>
<p>I had the same problem as you last year and wasn’t able to work around my schedule to take Multivariable Calculus so I didn’t take a math course senior year. I got into Northwestern just fine but I am going to need a lot of reviewing this summer since I practically forgot everything.</p>
<p>do you think that taking physics c would keep me up to date?</p>
