      @@AnitaLiu pls do reply.. and not ignore.. just curious to know why u dont want to mention all of your acceptance in the list of colleges you got into. I am happy for u that you got accepted everywhere you did, but not sure why you don't mention it in this video, when you mentioned them on your college decision reaction.

    You can take AP calc AB and AP calc BC in the same year? I don’t have a strong suit in math but I want to pursue a math heavy field. Do you recommend I should try to take both the same year if my HS offers it?

    • @MicCheckMemoirs
      @MicCheckMemoirs 4 года назад

      However, that will cost me to lose one of my two electives, Culinary and Spanish. Do you think it’s worth it? Or should I just play it safe and take pre calc over the summer?

    • @AnitaLiu
      @AnitaLiu  4 года назад +3

      hi, so sorry that i just saw this! for me personally, i skipped AP Calc AB and went straight to Calc BC from Precalc. i think that you should definitely try to take advanced math courses and involve in math related extracurriculars if you are set on pursuing a math heavy field in the future. i agree with the comment above that you should aim to take precalc over the summer. i hope this helps, let me know if you have any other questions! :)
