<p>Maybe a Mudd student can answer this, but I think the core is quite specific. There may be a couple of levels of classes that can be used to fulfill the core requirements (eg, if you had AP Chemistry vs. not in high school, there might be a couple different levels of Chem class you could take). But regarding “a lot of options to fulfill them”, I can’t see how there could be given the list of requirements and the size of the college.</p>
