Pre-Calculus vs Calculus Senior Year

Chance Me / Match Me!
1

<p>Hi -- is it absolutely necessary to have calculus during your senior year to be considered by such reaches for me as Emory, Boston College, possibly Tufts -- I am a junior and will be entering pre-calculus in the fall, but I fear that I may not be considered if I do not have 'at least' calculus (not AP, simply 'regular' calculus.)</p>

<p>Has anyone had experience with such colleges accepting candidates without calculus (ie only pre-calculus?) - My record is otherwise good for such colleges. I know that I will be up against candidates who will have completed calculus, but are there chances that they will consider pre-calc only?</p>

<p>This is a 'big' issue for me - thank you!</p>

<p>I am sure that one class will not make or break ur chances at a college. Dont sweat it too much =)</p>

<p>If u like precalc, and take calc next year then go for it cuz odds are your gpa will b higher in a class u enjoy. If u absolutely hate it take stat or Econ. Either way you cant go wrong.
Math in senior yr won’t make or break it just as long as you actually take a math course, and do well in it</p>
