<p>Hi all, </p>
<p>I m currently taking Calculus and i would like to know how good/hard it is to get an A?</p>
<p>Thanks!</p>
<p>its really good</p>
<p>This depends on so many factors that I cannot even begin to give you a good answer.</p>
<p>what do u mean?</p>
<p>It's great. One of the best. In fact, if I wasn' with another at the moment, I would go back to it. It really was that good.</p>

It's good. Very good indeed. </p>
<p>If you're concerned, you probably shouldn't take it unless it is required. But then again, mixing up the positions of "it" and "is" doesn't really give you an advantage in non-mathematical majors where writing is probably crucial.</p>

Yeah, Dorian Mode is right.</p>
<p>Are you good at math? Are you good at calculus? How smart are you, how good are you at problem solving? What other classes are you taking/how much time do you have to study? Do you have a good teacher? Is there a harsh curve? What are the tests like?</p>
<p>Only you can answer how hard it is to get an A.</p>
<p>I would guess the curve is not too bad and my teacher seems nice.
I'd say i'm pretty good at math and coz it s my only class, i have a lot of time to study.</p>
<p>I mean how will it look to college admission officers? Will it help?</p>
<p>Ps : how important is the homework?</p>
<p>Thanks!</p>
<p>I learned it on my own. In that case, it was really easy to get an A. I said, "hey me, great job, you get an A!"</p>
<p>frenchdude, I'm too lazy to look for the post, but I remember this one admissions officer posting about how good calculus looks on a transcript, in a thread called something like "AP Statistics or Calculus"</p>
<p>depends on which levels of calculus you're taking. are you taking AB Calc? BC Calc? IBH math? derivatives, integrals, or taylor series? </p>
<p>in my experience AB calc and IBS math is so easy to get A whereas BC and IBH are killers.</p>
