Hi everyone, so I found out recently that it looks like most of the places I plan on applying don't require calculus and was wondering if there would be any benefit of taking it. At this point if I take it, the best it could do is raise my cGPA and sGPA by .01 assuming I get an A. As for physics, I took the algebra based version and got As in it so it isn't that math is very hard for me, but considering the cost of tuition and that I already have around 150 credits, at this point if I don't need a course, I'm not going to take it.
What I would like to know is, considering it would have a minimal impact on my GPA and I have all the requirements and most of the strongly recommended courses under my belt already, is there any reason I should take calculus? Would many adcoms consider it a good idea to do so or frown upon applicants who don't have it? Any output on this would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you for your time and responses
