Math courses

<p>I took BC Calculus early, as a junior. I had anticipated to take an unofficial multivariable calculus independent study course that my math teacher offers to advanced students, but I was unable to do so because of scheduling issues. I have already taken AP Stats and AP Computer Science so I ended up not having a math course this year. Would MIT look unfavorably on this?</p>

<p>Nope, not at all. It's already evident that your very advanced in math by taking BC as a junior. Most kids take it their senior year. If there's anywhere on the application that you may explain this, you can do that. Many people use the "additional info" section as an explanation of some things with their applications or scheduling conflicts they had, but most people just write an essay. It's definitely not going to hurt you, but if you had taken multivariable it would have definitely help. Don't worry about it too much.</p>

<p>yeah man, I didn't take math junior year because of a scheduling conflict, since I took AP Calculus AB as a sophomore (that's the highest my school offers).</p>

<p>Literally, the math requirement is there for college admissions so that they know for sure you will be <em>ready for college level math</em>. It is clear you are, so don't worry about it too much.</p>
