Hi all! I need help choosing math classes for a boy (who will be in the 11th grade, so two more years of math), who has taken AP Calculus BC and Intro to Linear Algebra, Proofs. I am thinking about taking MVC and DE. What other options might be good? He is doing AP Physics C both and preparing for F=ma/USAPhO.
His future path is physics, applied math, or electrical Engineering. He is not a fan of programming, though he is finishing the second year of a university-level CS course (he really hates Haskell and is stuck on the tests).
Should he go the classical way—MVC/DE—or take something like Mathematical Statistics (he had AP Statistics on his own; the exam was 5) or Discrete Math?
He wants to spend a lot of time on math olympiads, too.
Thanks a lot for the advice! (Parents had math at school 30+ years ago and are completely useless).
