Help! Math 32L vs. 103

<p>I took BC calc last year and did decently. I know most of the stuff, but I am not the strongest calc student and do not remember some of the harder topics so well. If I get a 4 on the AP (I have no idea if I did) should I take 32, 32L or 103? Will 32 be too much review of last year?</p>

<p>thanks</p>

<p>Math 32 will most definitely NOT be too much of a review. College calc 2 covers a lot more material than CalcBC (at least the Duke version). I got a 5 on BC and went straight to 103, but I noticed the 32 kids covered material much more in depth than I had ever done (and some new stuff, like statistics). With that in mind, it is also true that kids that did relatively well in AP calculus in high school struggle a lot with math 32. My roommate had to take it twice just to pass and he had received a 4 on calc BC. Needless to say you won't be underchallenged, and having a very solid foundation in integration techniques is critical to success in math 103.</p>

<p>math 32 is harder than math 32L....i took math 32 and it was the hardest class ive had so far at duke. you have to work really hard in basically all math classes at duke though. however, math 32 is notorious</p>
