<p>Sylvan - I completely lost you on this recursive loop issue. </p>
<p>Let me put it bluntly. A State school that allows auto admits inside the state should not have a requirement giving an advantage to only selective schools that may get their students upto the AP calculus test by end of 11th grade when they clearly know someone needs to have completed geometry by the end of 8th grade to reach there.</p>
<p>UCB - Does Berkeley have a requirement that states someone should have completed AP Calculus AB or BC test to be admitted to engineering unconditionally?</p>
