<p>I'm going to be taking pre-calculus honors my senior year. Will that hurt my chances?</p>
<p>Is taking a calculus course required at stern?</p>
<p>I got accepted yesterday, and I’m currently taking AP Calculus AB and AP Statistics.</p>
<p>At an info sessions they said they prefer students to take calc their senior year but you can still get in with precalc so don’t worry. It just helps to be in calc.</p>
<p>As others said, no that shouldn’t hurt your chances.<br>
I’m taking Precalc and AP Stats this year and was just accepted so I think as long as you show strong grades in the classes you shouldn’t have to worry.</p>
<p>I didn’t have calc on my high school transcript when I was accepted. I took it my frosh year here as everyone does.</p>
<p>I took AP Calc AB(highest offered in my hs) my junior year, then took statistics for a semester at a community college</p>
<p>*statistics my senior yr</p>
<p>NYU admissions officer said that all perspective Stern students need to be “calc ready” and those who are not are an auto reject. I am assuming taking precalc is calc ready. Personally I am taking a dual credit Business calc course jr year, and planning to double up by taking stats and calc bc next year.</p>
<p>I go to the University of Chicago, but was accepted at Stern back in the day.</p>
<p>I also didn’t take calculus, only AP Statistics and IB Mathematics SL my senior year and still got an acceptance to Stern.</p>
<p>However, I would also like to say that getting in isn’t necessarily the hard part. Calculus is difficult in college, especially if you hadn’t taken it before.</p>
<p>I am taking Pre-Cralc right now (HS senior now) and took IB Math SL last year. Although a higher level calculus is preferred, I think pre-calc will be good enough before college begins.</p>
