Selecting Your Courses
Part 2
The
following subject and classes are standard fare for success in high school and
beyond, whether you plan to attend a four-college or a two-year college.
English
(Language Arts)
Take
English every year. Traditional courses, such as American and English literature,
help you improve your writing skills, reading, comprehension and vocabulary.
Math
You need
algebra and geometry to succeed on college entrance exams and in college math
classes – and in many careers. Take them early on. That way, you’ll be able to
enroll in advanced science and math classes in high school, and show colleges
you’re ready for higher-level work.
Most
colleges look for students who have taken 3 years of math in high school. The
more competitive ones require or recommend 4 years. Each school has its own program,
but so courses typically offered are:
·
Algebra I
·
Algebra II
·
Geometry
·
Trigonometry
·
Calculus
