<p>So this is the amount of maths that will have on my transcript
8th : Pre-AP Algebra
9th : Pre-IB Geometry
10th: Pre-IB Algebra 2
Summer between : Pre-IB Pre Calculus
11th: IB Math SL (a combination of all the above with Calculus and Statistics)
I'm taking the AP Calculus Exam this Friday . My only challenging option would be to take Math HL and because my school condenses these 2-year classes to being 1-year I don't think I can do it . Most schools only require 4 years and if I did it next year I'd be on my sixth. My peers tell me I could take a blow off math class called AQR but I've had challenging classes my entire high school career and I don't want to take a blow off class.
I have a disabled sister so because of her experience I've decided to major in nursing . But I'm also a singer . I love music so I'm probably also going to major in something related to music as well maybe Recording Arts or Voice . I'm going to have a Computer Science class for sure(which involves mathematics) because in one of the Recording Arts programs I'm looking at they want to see some sort of knowledge in Computer Science . I'll also be taking probably be taking a college credit Psychology/Sociology course next year for another nursing program I'm looking at. My schedule is really packed so it would be math or Psychology/Sociology course. How bad would it really be if I didn't take math senior year ? What should I do ?</p>
<p>Why are you including 8th grade?.. O_O
It’s fine if you don’t take math senior year…many people do it at my school. If you’re not planing to do something math/science related in college, then 3 years of math should be good enough. </p>
<p>However, I do advise you to take math senior year. Math is pretty important. A gap in math will laze your brain. I hate math. But it’s true. </p>
<p>@SeniorPanic Because it probably counted as a high school credit. I took Algebra 1 Pre-AP in 8th grade and it counted as a high school credit.</p>
<p>I would not recommend dropping math… it is generally frowned upon in admissions. Taking a “blowoff” class is better than no math at all.</p>
