Hello to everyone preparing for the Calculus AB Exam on May 4!
If anyone would like:
There is a free prep course on Coursera called “Preparing for the AP Calculus AB (and BC) Exams” by the University of Houston if anyone is interested. The course just started yesterday and will go on for 8 weeks until exam week.
There is a discussion forum w/ other participants in the course as well!
Argh, the censoring! Go to Coursera dot org and type in this extension in the html: /course/apcalc
Nice. This might turn out to be helpful.
The one thing that troubles me is the washer/disk method. A bit shaky on that.

For anyone interested, try this video series by Professor Leonard if you would like a video medium. It’s his HD class-recorded lectures. I prefer it to Khan Academy and the other Youtube Calculus series because of the atmosphere from the in-class setting.

For lessons on Nat. Log and Derivatives of Inverse Functions (which are on AB exam) watch 6.1, and 6.2 on his Calc 2 series:

He has a video on the washer-disk method as well.
