＃１です．補足です。

　以下はご質問を、英訳して送っていた孫（大学一年の方）から来た返事です。簡単に言えば、大学は SAT か ACT の得点を調べる。両テストには数学が重く見られる、ということです。

　(1) This is a little complicated because there isn't one main entrance examination in America. I hope my explanation below suffices.

There are two main college entrance exams, the SAT and ACT, required by most (UCs, CSUs, privates) but not all colleges. Usually a college will accept either one.

These standardized tests cover math and english (however there is also a short science section in the ACT). If a student desires to demonstrate additional knowledge to colleges, they can either take AP or SAT II exams (which both serve to test students on more specific topics). The main difference between the AP and SAT II exams is that sufficient AP scores can translate to credit in college while SAT II exams are taken to improve college applications.

There are probably other exams I am not aware of (I'm pretty sure I took one towards the end of high school to prove sufficiency in math and english but don't remember what it was called).

(2) I know the years of required math can vary by school, but I'm sure all high schools require math. It is also a prominent aspect of the exams I mentioned above.

僕は、直接経験はないのですが子ども（＝僕の子）の子ども、一人は大学一年生、もう一人が高３（＝僕の孫、いずれもアメリカの学校）について聞きました。

　入試はないがほとんどの大学でSATの成績を提出させ、その試験には数学があるそうです。
