<p>I have a big test tomorrow I need to study for but I really have never had the need to study math... but I don't get this chapter at all.</p>
<p>Review formulas, practice problems.</p>
<p>Practice problems (especially previous homework, classwork)</p>
<p>what is the ch on?</p>
<p>i think the key to learning calculus is having a good teacher.</p>
<p>seriously.</p>
<p>i have the best teacher this year; he’s funny, he’s wacky, and best of all, when he teaches…it sticks! everyone’s doing well. the mark of a good teacher is one who brings the lowest grades to As. that’s exactly what he does.</p>
<p>but i digress.</p>
<p>take good notes. that’s the best strategy.</p>
<p>do practice problems in your textbook.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Implicit differentiation. My teacher didn’t explain it well</p>
<p>^ZOMG we have are on the same chapter !!! It’s basically finding the derivatives of both side and then isolate the y derivative. Normally the problem would include the value for x and y hence, you replace the values into y derivative and find the slope of the curve.</p>
<p>Related Rates are confusing. I have to learn how to do them tonight, test soon. </p>
<p>Any help?</p>
<p>What do you do if you have a bad teacher?..</p>
<p>For me, it doesn’t stick. Formulas, identities, etc… I mean I can memorize APUSH+APWH+APBio facts/information but not AP Calc… <em>sigh</em></p>
<p>Read the textbook and understand the concept.</p>
<p>Helps if you have a stellar teacher, but as many might not (like mine), it helps to self-study a bit.</p>
<p>yeah I never really studied for math either (not a genius, pulled A- mostly), but for calculus BC this year I have to review myself a bit for the concepts to stick in because my teacher doesn’t really teach and the tests are fairly difficult.</p>
<p>sleep with your cal book under your pillow and you will make an A…</p>
