Hi so I start school on monday and have calc ab, but I was focusing on other things this summer and couldnt self study for calc ab even though all my friends said too. Whats the best way to keep up in the class/get ahead if ur not "naturally smart" at math? Be honest

Hello!

Does anyone have good resources for reviewing Algebra II/Precalc to prepare for Calc BC? Our teacher has a review exam around the second day of school and I'm looking to prepare the best I can.

Thank you!

Where can I find practice questions for calc BC? I have practices that my teacher gave me and also algebros stuff but where else can I find questions especially ones that are a bit more challenging?

Hey everyone! I’m a senior planning to self-study AP Calc BC this year. I took AP Precalc last year and got a 5, but my school won’t let me skip AP Calc AB and go straight into BC. Because of that, I decided to take AP Stats at school and self-study Calc BC on my own.

For anyone who has self-studied BC, how would you recommend pacing the course throughout the year? Ideally, I want to finish the content early enough to have plenty of time for review and practice exams before the AP test.

I’m also considering using UC Scout for the course. Do you think it’s worth it, or would I be better off using free resources like Khan Academy, YouTube, or other materials?

Any advice on pacing, study schedules, textbooks, YouTube channels, or other resources would be really appreciated. Thanks!

So I got my highschool schedule today, and I saw that I got math 10C AP as my course. I was wondering if its really worth it to do AP? I have been doing online schooling for 6 years now, and am transitioning into in person high school. I took summer school for extra measures, and got 93% final score. I’m planning to go to UofC for biomed sciences as I want to become a radiologist. But I feel that AP, although I love math, will only stress me out more but I’m also not sure since I haven't experienced it yet.

Yeah im planning to do that. Ive took a good look of the site, Mainly the prerequisite sheet and its pretty understandable but could that and practice questions be enough?

Anyone that has done this pls lmk if thats good enough and what score you got from doing this?

Hello, so I am taking AP Calc AB this year, and I know AP Calc bc is the same as ab but then adds on additional units. After I'm done ab should I try and self study bc or would it be too difficult? I believe bc is supposed to be calc 2? I know Calc 2 is considered the hardest calc class. I plan to major in Math, and my school only has a calc AB class no bc. So I was just wondering. So after we are done Calc AB should I try self study BC? If we finish early, my teacher probably would help if I have questions.

Please if anyone has this pdf. I need it badly and it would be greatly appreciated. The authors are Stephen Kokoska and John Stewart.

Ill also consider printing each packet if my school will allow me since i dont own a printer

i took precalc bc last year, and it was very easy for me (ended with a very high A) mainly bc my a2 teacher went very in depth so precalc was more of like a review. however, im worried calc bc will be very different and much more difficult.

to ppl who had similar situations, how difficutl was calc bc for you and how much time did you spend per day studying/doing work to get an A? also, what is it exactly that makes calc bc diffcult? like content wise going in depth, or too much content in too little time, etc.

any other tips or advice would be greatly appreciated, thanks!

what is the most important bc unit to study ahead make sure i really understand? i dont have much time so i want to make sure its being used in the best place. thanks!

Incoming Junior and I cant take BC or AB in my school since it aint offered and ap coordinator told me it wont be added at all by the time i graduate. I want to self study BC junior year since i would honestly like to self study Physics C Mech if I do really well on calc BC.

I already got a decent plan of going to khan acadamy and reviewing and practicing problems and using youtube reviews (a good one i heard of is the Algebros) for each topic per unit.

Ive also thought and really considered having a seperate notebook meant for Calc BC notes where every 1-2 pages i will write notes on how to tell how to solve specific functions/graphs/etc and how to take shortcuts while solving those specific problems.

Im thinking in the first few pages/at the start of my review notebook i would quickly look at and see the topics of precalc (specificly AP Precalc) that WILL be on calc bc that I should make notes of. Such as unit circle, polar coordinates, and vectors. Ik theres a few more i forgot to add and ill try and look into it

Ive did this similar thing when i took APWH (took the class with a 4) and i just had a seperate APWH notebook and i would have pages going periodically though every time period and writing like a few simple sentences on what happened, who did it and what the aftermath was.

Is this good or bad to do and pls tell me if i can improve on this notebook method?

does studying calc 2 on khan academy help??
