Alisa Kaleiwahea: You don't need anything in high school to get into those classes in college.All you need to worry about is getting good grades to get into college.I work in administration for local government pursuing my BS in Psychology.
Cierra Gadbaw: I am a Sociology Professor and advised Freshman coming into college before their first semester. Depending on the size of the college or university you chose to attend, you may be placed into a math class according to your history, or you may need to test for placement. There are general requirements defined by each state that every college student must meet before graduation. The requirements almost always include a math of college level, a Lab science, and two years of foreign language, not to mention a host of classes in government, history, humanities and a writing course. I would take the classes that you are weak in, and work hard to understand the material. If you take college level courses in high school, y! ou can retake them in college for credit, although they may try to convince you otherwise. This means if you can take Algebra 2 in High school, do it, then take it again in college. I think that is the minimum level of accepted math in college. So you are not mislead, early sociology is interesting and many find it easy. But if it becomes your major, math becomes important, it is after all a science also. If you want to talk to someone at a college you are interested in attending they would be more then willing to talk with you about these concerns....Show more
Danica Timperman: Also, if you have taken these courses, what do you do now? Is there any need for this kind of education in today's workplace?
Dominic Sciancalepore: You don't need to take ANY specific courses in H.S. to get into a specific major in college. HOWEVER, you do need to take specific courses to get into some specific colleges.In general colleges are looking for well prepared H.S. students - s! o courses in English, social studies, humanities, science (bio! logy, chemistry, physics) and math - you should ideally be up to trig and many students get up to calculus.Your goal is to do as well as you can.So your math plan sounds fine assuming that university math and college math means you are taking higher order math.Have you taken any science in H.S. - If not than I don't think this is sound. Social work usually requires Biology at the college level - and so you want to take it in H.S. before going to college.DA...Show more
