<p>Which would help my chances more? Staying in my current high school where I would most probably end up being around 7/1015ish ppl? And come out with mult. calc/ linear algebra</p>
<p>Or going to this special high school called TAMS where I would earn two years of high school and college credit and would probably come out with 90 credits and math courses in diff equations/linear algebra/modern algebra/ real analysis/ mult. calc/ vect. calc/etc.? The TAMS high school costs like $18000 for the two years tho. I should be able to get some sort of scholarship but still.</p>
<p>Can’t tell without more info. What is TAMS ? Is it a special charted public high school or is it a private high school? How does one gets picked into such a school ?</p>
<p>If it is an established school, the counciling office should have admission records for prior years to give you an idea.</p>
<p>90 credits? I can bet you that only a few of those will actually be usable as a lot of schools put a cap on the number of credits you can use.</p>
<p>And because the TAMS school has a big price tag, and you seem to only want to go there in order to increase your chances at college, I’d say stay at yoru current school where you would be able to take advanced math classes anyways.</p>
<p>Thanks. TAMS is this special residential school where u stay on the campus of UNT “earning” two years of high school and college credit. The college credit is accepted at Texas Public Colleges, so I am not sure how to go. I really want to go to MIT/Ivies, but would it make more sense to go their for graduate studies (ya another question that I have)? </p>
<p>Or I could just stay at my high school and end up wit around 5/1015 and come out wit mult. calc/ lin. alg/ and possible real analysis or something</p>
<p>Colleges like ones you talked about may look at it as a gimmick, or maybe not. I’d say councilling office admission history will be proof. If they hedge about providing that, that is a sign. If the history is very short, then, hmm, you have a decision to make.</p>
<p>don’t go to a school to improve your chances. if you think you would like TAMS more than your school now, i would go for it. colleges are probably going to be able to tell the difference if you just went there to get a leg up on everyone else.</p>
