AP Calculus AB & BC 2013-2014

<p>Gonna take the test on applications of integrals soon… (^#%)*&@(&_@(&</p>

<p>That’s what we’re learning right now! 19 days until my final. My final’s going to be the Calculus AB final (Multiple choice/FR), but its curved from 108 to 100 I believe.</p>

<p>I’m in Calc AB and we just started integrals. :(</p>

<p>just so you guys know, if you are doing integrals right now in Calculus AB, then you will have almost 2 months to review. That is how it went for me last year. Their really is not a lot of information you have to cover only about 5-6 chapters.</p>

<p>"I took my first quiz yesterday and got a D. I felt prepared and I studied, but when I got the quiz, there were things on there that we did not go over.
Someone please tell me this class will get easier! "
Once, the same happened to me, too. I got a 70 feeling fully prepared and “understanding” all the topics. Now, I will never let it happen, again. :)</p>

<p>does anyone know if there is a limit on how many calculators we can bring for the BC exam? I’d like to bring in two, my ti 84 and my 89</p>

<p>Almost finished chapter 4 (integrals, substitution, simpson’s rule, trapezodial rule); two more chapters to go for AB!!! Unfortunately we lost a week of instruction due to snow days but we’re still moving at a great pace.
I used to hate math with a passion (my pre-calc teacher last year was a total a–) but this year my ab teacher is amazing! For the first time in ever I have an A in math and I’m finding it easy…I might get a 5 on the exam :)</p>

<p>Only thing that still throws me off is how the collegeboard has the answers for the MC…we would take practice MC for our tests from old AP tests and I’d get the right answer but the test creators would write it in some weird convoluted manner. Any tips to recognize it quicker? I eventually get it right but I waste a lot of time just manipulating it to get it to be their answer.</p>

<p>So I’m taking an AB/BC course but i don’t really know how much BC we’re gonna get. We’re just finishing up the second part of the fundamental theorem of calc. how is that in respect to everyone else?</p>

<p>Right now, we’re doing Taylor series, remainder theorem, etc. I think we’re going to be done with the curriculum pretty soon - there are only a couple more BC topics to go over.</p>

<p>We’re almost done with differential equations in regards to applications of integrals…</p>

<p>We are far behind because of 17 snow days. (:expressionless: </p>

<p>Trying to remember all the convergence tests is making me want to stab my calculus textbook…</p>

<p>HI,</p>

<p>I will also be taking the AP Calculus AB exam this year! </p>

<p>Can’t believe it, the exam is =~ 1 month. How’s the prep going?</p>

<p>The exam is a week away. My three day final starts tomorrow… So not ready</p>

<p>Hey guys if anybody wants practice tests, Kaplan seems to have made them available for free at this link <a href=“https://www.learningpod.com/workbook/kaplan-s-ap-calculus-ab-bc/41d6f760-1967-4be9-8281-2ab39b28f5f2”>https://www.learningpod.com/workbook/kaplan-s-ap-calculus-ab-bc/41d6f760-1967-4be9-8281-2ab39b28f5f2&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>Question: are polar curves, improper integrals, or partial fractions covered on the ab exam? If theyre not, is it still helpful to know them, the way you dont need to know l hopitals rule but it makes some ugly limit problens easy?</p>

<p>@LadyRose214 My teacher said, if you’re doing an integral, improper fraction or integration by parts is not the correct way to solve the integral. I don’t believe polar curves are on the AB exam and idk about the improper integrals</p>

<p>@LadyRose214 None of the topics you mentioned are covered on the AB exam. Although all of them are covered on the BC exams</p>

<p>@TIProgrammer84‌ and @MrBlueWinds‌
Thanks guys!</p>

<p>So is it true that the average score of most of the frqs is like 2? If so, why so terribly low? (for AB)</p>
