Should I take the SAT or ACT or both? When should I take them?
I'm a rising freshman and I've already completed math classes up to Algebra 2. However, the reading and comprehension part is not my forte. I'm wondering if I should take the SAT/ACT in my freshman year or not, and if I should take both.
For my freshman year, should I take AP Precalc AB or BC? If BC, should I take Multivariable Calc & Lin Alg or just AP Stats for my junior year? If I take AB, that means I will most likely take Calc BC in 11th grade, which doesn't sound too appealing. The idea is if I'm taking BC, I could directly go on to Calc BC for sophomore year, so I could have my 11th grade year easier and just take AP Stats instead. However, I'm just worried it will be too much to handle.
I'm currently a rising freshman and I've taken all previous math classes before.

How do you find out what you will major in? What are the advantages of going to college as undecided as an incoming college freshman
What are the risks you need to take to dual or even triple major. I am going to college undecided and I have a wide range of interests and I am really overwhelmed by what the future holds. I am passionate about math and biology; however, I really don't know how to utilize my likes into an actual profession. I would like to major in biology and finance while minoring in language and business. I might even major in other subjects that are not listed above. I would like to know what the hardships and hard parts of learning each course in college are and the fun and interesting aspects of it. I want to get the answer from an actual person who has gone through the process of figuring what they want to major in and people who have seen what it takes to be in either finance, business, anesthesiology, dentistry, and many more. Thank you ! #Spring26
