MT majors: What was your high school schedule like academically?

<p>I must say this has been a good reminder of “a day in the life of a college student” and a reassuring read. I was just talking to my daughter, a sophomore (not an MT student) and after hanging up found myself fretting that she’s trying to do too much. Between her work-study job, classes/homework, tutoring at the local elementary school, time in the practice room, and her various EC commitments, I worry a bit about the possibility of a meltdown. But it seems she’s in good company, and I suspect I was similarly busy in college but have forgotten the details.</p>

<p>Her time management skills have been exemplary, and I guess I shouldn’t be surprised. In high school, she also did the lessons/plays/rigorous coursework routine, and she has quite successfully continued with the self-discipline and time management in college. Not an AP course anywhere on her transcript, but lots of lessons learned that are carried over to college.</p>

<p>Math in the 4th year? Even if you don’t need it? DEFINITELY!</p>

<p>I didn’t take math in my fourth year–and easily could have–and I forgot everything before college. I had to retake Algebra II just to qualify for college-level math. </p>

<p>If I had to do it all over again, I would take math in my senior year–no matter how much I hate it!</p>
