Taking Calc w/ Apps over AP Calc Effects

You’re falling victim to the modern American college con. It’s one that says you can only be successful if you go to a top ranked school, T100, T50, T20, T5, Twhatever, and that one high school class can make the difference in achieving the dream.

The reality is that the most successful people are in the positions they are in because they have strong work ethic. They grind and take advantage of the opportunities in front of them. They come from all sorts of different schools.

Don’t lose any sleep over this. Take the math that resonates with you. You’re far better off taking Statistics, understanding and enjoying it, and getting an A, than struggling through AP Calc and doing poorly.
