<p>Hi - I have a question regarding my course selections. The MIT coach has been telling me that I should be taking the highest level math/science courses I can. So far I've done this in Math. In high school, I've taken Pre-Calc, AP Calc ab, AP Calc bc/multivariable, and next year I will be taking Linear Algebra (post-AP). I've gotten an A/A+ in all these, a 5 on the AP Calc ab, bc/ab subset exams, and an 800 on the Math II Subject Test. </p>
<p>My problem for senior year is science. So far, I've taken biology, chemistry, and AP Physics B and gotten A/A+'s in all of them, a 5 on the AP Physics B exam, and a 780 on the Physics Subject Test. However, going into my senior year, because of a required Art Elective and English Course, we must drop either a History, Math, or Science course in our schedules. Ultimately, I had to drop a Science, which would have been AP Physics C. </p>
<p>I am interested in MIT's Sloan School of Management rather than the main engineering department. AP Macro Economics is considered a history course at my school, and I opted to take that course instead of a science for this reason. I didn't see dropping math as an option because I simply have loved math forever. </p>
<p>The problem is, MIT applications are for the general school, and students don't declare a major (for me, management/business in Sloan if I get in) until after Freshman year. I'm good at science, and I like it, but I felt that I should prioritize my interests here - Math + Econ over Physics. Was this the wrong decision, and should I specify this reason for why I don't have a Science course on my 4th year of high school on my application? Or does it not really matter?</p>
<p>Any input would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!</p>
