My daughter is a college senior…engineering major. She did NOT take calculus in high school. She took it in college. The reality is that most colleges want you to take calculus THEIR WAY. You can take a math placement test if you’ve taken high school calc…but if college calculus is a requirement for your major (like it was for my kid for engineering), you will likely need to take it in college.

Don’t fret. You’ve been accepted to your top choice school ED. If you need to take calc…you can take it in college (and as an applied math major, that is a likely course requirement).
