<p>Well im in quite a dilemma; Ive finished calc BC and my school doesnt offer anything else. What comes after calc BC at the community college level (my local community college course descriptions are weird--every course is called "calculus").</p>
<p>Thanks guys.</p>
<p>Generally "multivariable calculus"...</p>
<p>You could also take a linear algebra course or something in statistics.</p>
<p>differential equations is also a possibilty, but i think you should stick with multivar if you can.</p>
<p>AP Statistics or Multivariable Calculus (My school offers both. Stick that to all y'all's GA stereotypes.) Stat is definitly the easier, less prestigous course. MV Calc is definitly your next step if you can.</p>
<p>After Calc BC, I'd recommend trying to prove Fermat's last theorem on your own =)</p>
<p>Hint: Use modular forms.</p>
<p>Ilya, stop giving them hints, gosh! It'll be too easy now...</p>
<p>don't listen to Silvery Ms. or Happyentropy. They are both crazy.</p>
<p>And unless it interests you for some reason, avoid AP Stats. It is in no way a sequel to calculus.</p>
<p>yeah ive already taken ap stats.</p>
<p>Thanks for the input.</p>
<p>My comm. college doesnt offer multivariable calc, but I wanna show colleges that I have taken it. So how do I do so?</p>
<p>are you sure they don't offer multi. Sometimes it is called calc 3 the other option is find a university if there is one close they will definatly offer it.</p>
<p>Does your community college have a website? I suppose one of us could poke around the course descriptions and see what would be appropriate for you.</p>
<p>My son found that at the community colleges around here math often ends after single variable calculus..so he had to go to UCB to do multivariable calculus/linear algebra & differential equations. You might want to look at universities and see if they have any concurrent enrollment classes for high school students or maybe something on-line?</p>
<p>What DOES your community college offer in terms of math? If there's not an alternative that works easily and you aren't near a larger university where you could take multivariable, maybe you can use the free time in your schedule to take extra science that is math-based (like a higher physics or chem class at the comm college perhaps). Or learn something about computer programming? Hopefully you haven't exhausted the classes offered at your high school and comm college in both math AND science.</p>
<p>You could look at a state uni, even though that'd probably be significantly more expensive.</p>
<p>or there are some online places. I remeber seeing something about an online program through stanford. Not sure what all it entails though or if they even have multi variable. Also a state college may have an online program. The one here does. You might even be able to do it out of state I have no idea actually. If you can't find anything else I will dig up the website.</p>
<p>Is the online program at stanford EPGY?</p>

<p>halfthelaw: You got that right.
Cost of community college for me: Free
Cost of state U(cal poly, slo): about 800 bucks per class per quarter.
All my summer job money is going to pay for classes. : (</p>
<p>I know a guy who had to pay for UC-Berkeley to take higher math classes, but then he turned around and got an excellent deal on his laptop for school because of the student discount. Maybe there are some perks like that!</p>
