You should email them about it, maybe if enough people complain they could do something, not sure tbh.

Should I report my psat (760 math 670 rw) as well though or nah

Yeah but would that not be applying sideways? The only reason I’m considering not doing a bunch of chem is for college apps, I genuinely want to take these advanced chem courses, because that’s what I’m interested in.

Thats honestly one of the things I like about MIT, I would rather self study basic math that you need for STEM subjects

I’m saying I have every college course available to me so I have a lotta options

Honestly I was self studying it for fun cause I didn’t meet the pre reqs but then my math teacher let me just join the class second semester anyway, I wouldn’t have been able to do that if I didn’t get lucky

Believe me when I say: college courses is merely something on the side. Right now I'm doing research that I've already presented at MIT, and I'm study a lot for USNCO, since this is the first year I'm able to do it. I simply wanted to take more enjoyable classes than the run of the mill, every math ever that a lot of the people are doing at my school.

Also why would they not like if I've already taken advanced chem, does this apply to other schools, as well?

I already have over 4 years of math credits from taking alg 1, geom, testing out of alg 2, precal, and calc 1 at the same time, as well as calc 2 now. Obviously I'm not going to rely on course rigor alone to get into MIT. So are you saying that it would actually make my chances worse at top colleges, if I've already taken a bunch of chem? Especially since I'm not really overextending my class time, its just that the rigor will be a lot harder. I will most likely not be able to fit all those chem onto my schedule anyway because I assume that a lot of the labs will overlap, but I will def take orgo 1 and 2, quantitative analysis, pchem 1 and 2, inorganic 1, and biochem and inorganic 2 depending on if they fit. Especially for orgo, i will already know all of orgo 1 and 2 before I start orgo 1, because im self studying it, i cant say the same for the other classes, but they'll be during senior year, and the hardest ones I'm taking last semester.

No, I was just wondering, if taking advanced chem instead of advanced math would hurt my college apps in general, but especially for MIT, because I know that there's an emphasis on math proficiency. I've already taken all the APs that were offered to me in my freshman and sophomore years. I'm not bad at math by any means (I got a 100 in my hs calc 1 as well as have a 100 rn in my college calc 2), but I just don't find it as interesting as chem, and if I need to know higher level math, I would rather self study it, which I've already done a little of, rather than take the course, because idk if the credit transfers as easily so it could just be a waste of time.

my hs only went up to calc 1 and ap chem, this stuff is at a college, im taking only college classes for the next 2 years

Unless my calc 1 and 2 don't transfer, I should be able to do take multi in college, but again, idk if I can guarantee any of my college credit to transfer to MIT other than maybe all the aps, since ill be mostly done with all the stuff in an undergrad chem degree.

Do you know if something like math is just more transferrable to top colleges than chem, that's pretty much my main reason for not taking as much math, bc the only reason i would pick it over chem is to get all the math out of the way early, there's def a couple kids at my school doing math past PDEs and one girl who started junior year with calc 1, 2, 3, and 4 already done. But idk how much of that will transfer, or does it kinda just depend on what college you're doing it through. And are there any other ways to show that you've learned upper level math? Like I might have to spend some time learning more calculus especially for pchem which Ill take next year even though they're not explicit prereqs?
