@stresseddaddy The trig would count as advanced math, so your hypothetical student would get 250 points. I don’t think the idea is they give 250 points to everyone, instead you are simply forgiven for not listing math classes taken in middle school. If you look at the admissions requirements (https://admissions.calpoly.edu/applicants/freshman/criteria.html) they’ve changed from 6 semesters of math required, 10 recommended, to now they list algebra, geometry and advanced math separately. Presumably the bonus MCA points come from the advanced math. So this year (we think), they’re forgiving the semesters of algebra and/or geometry missing on your application.
