<p>In my school, many kids take pre-calculus during their sophomore, and then take AB calc during their junior year. I am doing ALG 2 during my sophomore year, taking pre-cal during junior year, and then AB calc senior year, however the difference is that I am taking AP Lit, something CALC students don’t want to take. So my question is, would colleges want someone who took AP Lit instead of AP Calc with a higher SAT score than the other person (2100) or someone with AP Calc with a lower SAT score (2000)</p>
<p>Hmm… that’s tough. I think it just depends on whether the school is looking for a more humanities or math/science-y person. The SAT score might MAKE it or break it but if all other factors (rank, ECs, essays, etc…) are similar in quality I don’t think it will be the deciding factor.</p>
<p>I can’t tell you that unless you tell me where you want to go and more importantly, what you plan on majoring in… 
</p>
<p>Relax a bit, you will stand out from the otheder kids at your school because you did things differently from them, this will help you, how much depends on above.</p>
<p>I’m not really sure what I plan to major in, however the colleges I’m looking at are UCLA and UC Berkeley.</p>
<p>It’s important…</p>
<p>At state schools like UCLA and UCB SATs are probably a bit more important since you guys seem to have the same number of APs (so the same rigor) but just in different subject areas.</p>
