<p>Going off my own personal experience here: I’m a liberal arts/languages kind of student. My grades show it (I always got B’s in math), my test scores show it, I’m just not good at math. Instead, I focused on doing well in my liberal arts/languages and doing well enough in math (I only took three years!), and I still got accepted to the only UC on my list. </p>
<p>I’m also not required to take math next year, and if I choose to take math, my placement test will let me take statistics in place of calc.</p>
