Im curious, would a good grade in calculus impress PT schools? Its not required for my major (exercise science) but Precalculus is a requirement for general chemistry at my school and Im acing it. I was pretty average my first few semesters and I feel like getting a good grade in a class like calculus would show admissions officers that I can handle more difficult classes. I have a 3.3 gpa and Im yet to take most of the major classes such as bio, chem, stats and physics. Any thoughts?

Would calculus make my transcript look better?

No, it would not. However, if your school does not offer a physics series for life/social science majors (algebra/trig based), calculus I is usually a prereq for general physics/ calculus based physics. I hope this information helps you reach super saiyan level 5.

I know one school that requires it, UDelaware. Don't take the time to learn calculus unless you need it.
