How much does taking college-level classes help my college admission?

Applying to College

<p>I’m going to take some college-level math classes such as Real Analysis with EPGY this year. But does taking such classes really distinguishes me from those who just take AP classes? How much do universities care about those who take college-level classes?</p>

<p>You will be viewed more favorably. It shows your interest in math.</p>

<p>In other posts, you mentioned majoring in biology. Seems odd that someone strong and interested in enough in math to be taking real analysis would choose biology over math as a major.</p>

<p>Exactly. This seems quit odd. The subject which I’m the best at is math. But since the subject which I want to study about through my life is biology, I want to major in biology. Thanks for always giving me a good answer.</p>

<p>If you are that advanced in math, it may not be too hard to pick up a second major in math (or statistics) alongside a biology major. This may give you better job prospects if you are unable to find work in biology.</p>

<p>Yeah. I though of the same idea. I wish I would just take 4 years to graduate.</p>

<p>It should not be that hard to fit a biology major, about half to two thirds of a math major (assuming you will have taken math through real analysis while still in high school), and other graduation requirements in four years.</p>

<p>oh, I’m sorry. I was just thinking of another idea lol I’m sure I will take no longer than 4 years. Thanks.</p>
