<p>Currently the discrete math curriculum in my county is very bad, so I am helping to rewrite the curriculum. I add section like number theory, that is currently not included and add problem packets and some lectures that I made. My question is that how much of an EC is this and how much is this weighted in college admissions.</p>
<p>Do it because you love it. If you love it and show that when it comes time for your college apps, then it won’t matter “how much of an EC” it is. </p>
<p>I think it’s a really great EC. (Well, it sounds interesting. It doesn’t sound like something a high school student would be qualified to do, though.)</p>
<p>Not that I work in admissions, but you have my utmost respect. Improving curriculum is one of the highest ways you can benefit society and demonstrate that you care about the subject. I have found myself frustrated beyond belief with the plug-and-chug calculus curriculum and the laughably dumbed-down discrete mathematics curriculum at my community college. I wish my curriculum had someone like you to influence its development.</p>
<p>Godspeed in your efforts and I hope admissions officers will feel the same way that I feel about the evils of crappy mathematics education.</p>
