My son is a freshman in a strong large midwest public high school. Early on he advanced 4 years in math. He is currently taking BC Calculus and finished with an A+ first semester and had a perfect score on the University admistered final exam.(ACT of 35 as an 8th grader) In school options next year are not ideal. He can take AP Stats in school but also wants to take something else mathwise bc he knows stats will be easy)We are trying to determine what on line option (multivariable calc and linear algebra etc.) would be the best for him in terms of preparation and recognition of a valid program by top colleges when he applies for engineering programs. Any experience by recent grads who took individual on line classes esp from Stanford on line, MIT Harvard etc. would be especially appreciated in terms of college admissions perceptions. He will definitely be applying to Stanford so anyone who may have insight as to how Stanford or other top math/science/engineering schools expect highschool students continue their years if they have exhausted their math. We are willing to take cost out of the equation
