Thanks for the responses. I attend an online school currently. (It's school that isn't brick and mortar but is still public.) My school doesn't provide any EC's other than honor society, some clubs, and student government. I need to be in 10th to be in honor society, so I have to wait for that. I need to be elected to get into student government (Just participating won't really help me in terms of admissions.) All their clubs are virtual, but I might join the digital arts one in part for the experience and so I can show my art and in part for the possibility that it could help raise my chances. The current courses I am taking are very easy and seem to be designed so everyone can pass if they have brain cells and try half of the time. I usually will spend half of my morning on assignments and still get A's. My favorite subject is math. I am enrolled in algebra I honors, but going through it is more tedious than intellectually challenging. I am going through Khan Academy, and I am doing well on their calculus at least so far. I have gotten 4% through AB and 5% through BC. This is interesting, because I can practice my basic algebra skills, trigonometry, all while studying calculus. My idea is to challenge myself academically, instead of putting in a minimum amount of effort to barely get A's, like I have done in 8th grade. (I am partly guilty of that this year too.)
Maybe I should take it a little slower than my original plan. Maybe I should take intermediate algebra at my local community college as a backup and self study for the BC test (AB if I don't have enough time,) and if I fail, then I go take precalc during the summer. If I get a 3 or higher on the BC in full, or even a 3 on the AB subscore, then I can skip calculus I. Then maybe I can get an associate's in business administration and an associate's in mathematics and transfer to the math department in 11th. (By the time I start, I will be almost 17, but remember, I will probably be placed in school as a junior.) Of course assuming I do get in, I will get a full bachelors in math. Can I start getting through some of Haas's courses so that I can get a head start on my degree? Haas also seems to have a bias of prioritizing UC Berkeley transfers over regular transfers, but this probably isn't true because UC Berkeley students know more about admissions criteria and tend to be higher achievers, at least academically, than the average transfer student from a community college. This is of course assuming I can get into the math branch. If not, then I might just get another business related associate's degree, and then apply to a bunch of UC and CSU schools. I could resort to TAG (transfer admission guarentee) for UC Riverside, but that would be a last resort.
Anyways, do you have any advise on what I should do? Does applying for the math branch instead sound like a better idea? Sorry that is so long. Thank you for reading.
