AP Calculus AB
#21
I'm gonna say this:

Bug your school conseulor to get you into AP Calc AB. By taking this class, this will definately help you in college/universities through allowing you to save time and $ by taking harder courses.

However, do note: Most universities will not accept Calc AB as a way for you to skip out on math classes, even if you get a 4/5. BUT your efforts will not be in vain - you'll get some univ. credit if you pass Calc AB/AP (preferably with a 4 or 5) as well as be allowed to take harder math courses.

P.S. I'm a current AP Calc AB student in high school right now =P

That was build-up too. You've been working with systems of equations since algebra 2... algebra 1 too iirc. It's just not until linear algebra that you can finally start doing something with them.

Calc bc was rape for me but my biggest problem was knowing which integration technique to use depending on what the equation was. Especially in a test, if you used to wrong technique, you just wasted 5 minutes so you really gotta familiarize yourself with the methods and when to use which ones.

I don't know why people in this thread are saying calc bc is like just calc ab. Calc ab is a joke. I don't know why the system doesn't teach that as a regular high school course. Calc bc is when math gives you an intro of its abstraction with the series and "integrating infinity".
