The college you end attending: Is this actually determined in middle school?

@citymama9 - My D took Calc instead of AP Calc. She started out assuming she would be a humanities major, so none of us really concerned ourselves with whether or not it was AP. She still managed to test out of Calc 1 when she got to college and as it turned out, she fell in love with math and physics and declared herself a physics major. She’s doing fine and even tutors others in math.

So, it’s not a big deal even if you are planning to go into a STEM field…besides as pointed out there are very few colleges that expect you have any Calculus at all.
