You can wait until college to take it, but it will probably be easier to take in HS. Take this into consideration, your degree may not even require you to take calculus. Find out what the math requirements are for your degree of choice to be certain. Alos, just because you take it in high school, doesn't mean you don't have to take it again in college. if it is an AP course, and you score the appropriate score on the test you can CLEP it and not have to take it in college. You certainly don't need it to get into college.

I didn't even take it in college. I tested into "pre-calc" and met my math requirements with that and Statistics. If you plan on having some kind of math-related major, it might be a good idea to take it in high school and be one step ahead when you get to college. If you can do it, I say, why not?

Depends on the college. Take it in high school!!!!! College level courses are taught at a different pace, and college faculty do not hold students hands or hold up the class for unprepared/confused students.

No, it's optional. You don't even have to take it in college. I didn't take calculus in undergrad. There were other courses to fulfill the math requirement. I took Logic instead.
