See:
Out here in Aus, those interested in math do the equivalent of your Calculus BC in year 10 and 11. In year 12, they do 4 university subjects such as Differential Equations, Linear Algebra, Multivariable Calculus and Probability and Statistics.
What is going on in the US? I know that the average US HS does not have as advanced a math syllabus as we do in Australia, but schools like Phillips Exeter are beyond what even our best schools offer. They are the students you expect to go to UCSD, not the average HS student. Or am I missing something?
Thanks
