2 Upvotes

Hey, current applicant for the class of 2031, any ideas on how to decrease mile time? I just passed last week with these scores and I fall in the "average" tier:
Basketball throw: 76 ft
Pullups: 13
Shuttle run: 8.92
Situps: 71
Pushups: 74
Mile run: 7:52

any recommendations on running faster in like a month or two? Might retake it again in like december probably

Advice for Calculus

2 Upvotes

I took AP Precalculus in high school and got an A and got a 4 on its respective test, but my placement test scores when I got to my prep school were low, so they placed me in college algebra, which is what I am currently taking and have an A in.

Next semester, I am going to take calculus to raise my applicant score because I am a self-prep, meaning I am not sponsored, so I was wondering if anyone has any advice for calculus. In addition to me taking the Khan Academy course over winter break so I have an idea of what is going on.
