My DD is now strongly looking at applying to a few of the SA's (USNA, USMA and USCGA). She was not on the advanced math track, but has excelled in math. She is now considering doubling up her junior year with trig and pre-calc. My question is how much does it matter that you have taken calc in high school? We are concerned she will overload herself and other areas (sports/eca's) will suffer. Our plebe was in advanced math and validated calc 1, but said many of his shipmates have not taken calc in high school? She will be taking honors chem, prin of engineering, AP english, AP US history, honors Spanish, honors algebra 2 and maybe pre-calc. Any insights? thx
