<p>Okay, I know I posted a thread about this already, but I have another concern.</p>
<p>Everyone said I can self-study the BC topics between now and the AP test.
I talked to my Calc AB teacher, and he said there's no way...</p>
<p>So I'm just wondering who to believe. Should I still go for it?</p>
<p>So you have not touched any BC topics yet? You might still make it barely. I am jsut finishing up Sequences and Series here. I say go for it.</p>
<p>I think you can do it. Self-studying goes by a lot quicker than in-class learning. You can skip the stuff you know and spend time on the stuff you need help with. Pick up a prep book (PR), check out the topics that are on the exam, and do practice problems in your calc book on those topics…should be enough.</p>
<p>Good luck.</p>
<p>I’ve already started some of the topics. I did arc length and partial fractions integrals.</p>
<p>I’m sort of in the same boat, though I have self-studied some topics before now. I’m a bit nervous about getting series/sequences done soon but I’m going to utilize my spring break to the max! Can anyone else console our worries?? :)</p>
<p>Unless you understand AB materials extremely well, it is highly unlikely you will be able to learn BC materials on your own and finish in time to take practice tests.</p>
<p>Fortunately I do know my AB well, then!!!</p>
<p>Haha, well, I’m a freshmen at UCSB, and I took Calc II last quarter. We essentially covered everything that the BC test covers, and that was within 10 weeks. I never went to class, essentially self-studied the course and got an A. I definitely think its doable.</p>
