Currently I am a junior in high school and I take Pre-Calc. Math has always been difficult for me and it’s starting to reflect in my grade. Last semester I got an 88% in pre calc. I know it’s not a bad grade but I studied relentlessly to maintain that grade. Also, I have already taken 5 math courses throughout my high school career.
Freshman- Algebra 1, Intro-Comp Science, Geometry(summer school)
Sophomore- Algebra 2
Junior- Pre Calc
Senior- none?
University of California schools recommend 4 years of math and as you can see, I will have completed my 5th year this semester. If I do continue to take math I will have to choose from AP Calc or AP Stats. Math is my greatest weakness and after seeing my older sister struggle to pass AP Calc last year, I have a bad feeling about it. To compensate for not taking math next year I will take mostly AP classes. What do you think? Will this decision jeopardize my chances to get into schools like UCLA, UCI, UCSD, UCSB, UCD, etc.?
