Math in HS for MIT

In our HS, grades and teacher recommendations are only two of three factors. Standardized testing is the third. If your math grades on the standardized tests weren’t in the top 5% -10%, you would not have been moved up without a parent making a pest of him/herself (not saying this is right, but it CAN make a difference).

OP, I am curious to hear whether your parents advocated for you in this decision or were they not involved? It seems the outcome might be different if they had input.

I think your path forward is a little clearer. Math matters at MIT, and Calc BC in your senior year will be seen as par for the course.
