Selecting
Your Courses
Part 2
The following subjects and
classes are standard fare for success in high school and beyond, whether you
plan to attend a four- year or 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 in high school, and show colleges you’re ready for higher
level work. Most colleges look for students who have taken three years of math
in high school. The more competitive ones require or recommend four years. Each
school has its own program, but some of the courses typically offered are:
· Algebra I
· Algebra II
· Geometry
· Trigonometry
· Calculus
Choose the right..
