<p>Raise your hands if you are taking Calc BC this week. :)</p>
<p>Me! And I’m super nervous.</p>
<p>haven’t even started studying yet :(</p>
<p>I am already getting 5 so I am not nervous 
I will just cram on Monday and Tuesday.</p>
<p>i will study anything but Taylor series. Taylor can suck it.</p>
<p>There are bound to be at least 3 MC and one FRQ on Taylor series, so I’d advise you not to skip it. Plus that chapter talks about other important things in series that are necessary for a 5. I’m putting all of my effort into chemistry today and once that test ends around noon tomorrow, I’ll be pulling out my BC review material.</p>
<p>Yep over here. I did well in the class but there’s something about squeezing all the calc I’ve ever learned into my head that isn’t working out so well. I don’t even know how to study, there is so much stuff D:</p>
<p>I’m so screwed. My Calculus class is an extension course from our local university so it doesn’t follow the AP track.</p>
<p>Fortunately, differential equations and Taylor series are fresh in my mind, but how much should I focus on the polar/parametric stuff?</p>
<p>I am too! So nervous.</p>
<p>Is there generally always a FRQ on taylor series?</p>
<p>Yes. Usually question #6 on the free-response.</p>
<p>Polars and parametrics are a good part of the exam, jubilee, so I’d suggest you make them a part of your review. </p>
<p>Speaking of which, I need to review those and Taylor series…</p>
<p>I’m taking it on Wednesday! And I am so screwed. Made a huge mistake taking it junior year. BUT I’m re-taking the exam next year if I don’t get a 4 or 5, and I’m not even going into engineering/pre-med or anything like that, so it’s not the end of the world, I guess.</p>
<p>I’m definitely getting a 5 but I’m aiming for a mid ranged 7 (90%)</p>
<p>I’m taking it. Hopefully FLVS did a great job of preparing me (I think it did). I just finished the two MC sections from the 2003 released exam and got 40/44 (and I now know why the others were wrong) so I feel much better Tomorrow I plan to look at the scoring guidelines for all released FRQs from the past 4 years or so.</p>
<p>Here’s to hoping the exam doesn’t test over the area between two polar curves. I hate those problems.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>I CONCUR! Especially the error crap :(</p>
<p>screw taylors and polars efffffffffff</p>
<p>If I bought a prep book that gives me all the general formulas of polar and parametric stuff, should I be fine?</p>
<p>I know a little bit of vectors off-handedly from pre-calc and physics.</p>
<p>I hope the exam is hard so the curve will be more generous. I’m going to study notes for 2 hours today!! :D</p>
