<p>Miscellaneous/Notes
I moved schools after Freshman year, hence why I took both APs and AS and A-Levels.</p>

<p>I’ve always taken the hardest schedule the school offers.</p>

<p>I took Calculus 3/Multivariable this summer and got an A but took a course in Differential Equations and got a C. I also took a couse in C++ programming and got an A. Took Alg. 1 and Geometry in middle school. (probably not a big achievement, though, since everyone is doing that these days)</p>
