Hello all
I would like to study math in college in the hopes of someday becoming a mathematician. I'm going to be a senior in high school with about a 3.4 GPA (taking IB classes). Not great, I know. I self-studied Calculus BC (being in the AB class) and got a 5 on the exam. I also got 5s in French and English Langauge (I lived a year in France though, so the high grade in French is natural). There is an upward trend in grades from my freshman year to now. (I got a C in algebra and some other stupid things ... ack!)
I will have taken Calc 3 and linear algebra by the end of high school. I am sure I'll get an A in calc 3 and who knows about linear algebra (which I'll be taking online through Stanford's EPGY program.)
I don't have any of the great extracurriculars nor the GPA eneded to get into *really* competitive schools.
Which colleges could I reasonably get into that have the best possible math programs? Thanks for the advice.
P.S. I know I've asked a similar question here before but I was much less precise and specific. I hope I'll get some good answers :-)
