Classes to take Senior Year - A Consideration for Competitive Admissions and Preparation for College

Thank you for your response.

I agree with a college calculus retake regardless of what she takes in high school. A solid mathematical foundation is critical for sciences and repeating calculus is not an issue. I am comfortable with her teacher such that I suspect she will get the exposure to the material she needs, but she has already had that same teacher for geometry and algebra 2. Sometimes access to different teaching styles, etc. is helpful.

I am more concerned about the physics class as I suspect that course will be low rigor (we know the teacher and, to be fair, its more the other kids in class than the teacher). I think CTY offers AP Physics 1 and AP Physics 2.
