tex_lex1125 Posted September 25, 2013 Report Share Posted September 25, 2013 So I want to study business management but I'm worried that math studies won't count towards maths credits. I'm applying to the UK and know that math studies is acceptable but for the US I'm not quite sure. I'm not really a maths person and was told that I would excel at studies but I can't change from standard to studies if colleges in the US won't accept it. I'm not applying to Ivy League schools and I already know that I would need to take SATs and possible subject tests. Any help on this matter would be greatly appreciated.

ak18 Posted September 25, 2013 Report Share Posted September 25, 2013 US unis do accept it. You'd have to take maths level I SAT subject test though. And you just wont get credit for your maths course in Uni. But yes, US unis do accept math studies Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ms.Blackford Posted September 25, 2013 Report Share Posted September 25, 2013 The Universities in the U.S accept math studies. Although, if you're going to study something heavily math-required like math or advanced physics, then standard would be a recommendation. Sometimes even HL is a requirement, but that's rare and doesn't apply to any of the social sciences. Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emmi Posted September 25, 2013 Report Share Posted September 25, 2013 Since you're planning to go into management, math studies is fine. In your degree you're not going to be doing any math harder than basic calculus (and even then, barely any if at all), but you'll probably do some statistics (which math studies focuses more on). To the above poster, since she said she's not good at math and wants to study business, I doubt she'll be studying physics and needs HL math Also, you do not have to take an SAT subject test in math. Your college might require you to take a math placement exam once you get there (mine did regardless of what your major is), but you might not have to. You'll be fine.
