<p>Since many related rates questions take awhile to do, it’s rare to see more than one or two on the multiple choice.</p>
<p>It does sometimes pop up as a free-response question, but the BC exam rarely dedicates a full nine-points to a related rates question. More likely is one lettered part worth between two and four points will happen.</p>
<p>We are only on logistics for exponential growth in my BC class and it feels as if we are way behind. Where are you guys?</p>
<p>My test on optimization, related rates, and a few other small things is tomorrow. Then we’re starting integrals.</p>
<p>Now, my class is on integrating by parts</p>
<p>We’re doing definite integrals now and our test is next Friday. Then it’s review for finals. This year is going by so quickly!</p>
<p>Bump. We finished all of BC material about 2 months ago…</p>

<p>Hey guys, our class is on taylor series now…</p>
<p>My class still has two big units left, I think we are starting series and sets tomorrow.</p>
<p>My class just finished the AB curriculum today with volume by cross sections, and then we have about two more days of material before this test. Then we have three more tests.</p>
<p>I think we’re slower because my school doesn’t make/let you take AB and BC, so everyone came into the class knowing pretty much nothing about Calculus (we learned the VERY BASICS about derivatives and power rule in precalc last year).</p>
<p>My class just finished integration by parts/trig integrals/partial fractions/divergence.</p>
<p>Starting a new chapter tomorrow! (I have no idea what it is…)</p>
<p>I’m super nervous for the BC exam because I already know I butchered my chances of taking Multivariable before college… I just want to get out of Calculus I, that’s all.</p>
<p>My class is finishing rectilinear motion. All we have left are series and volume of rotated regions.</p>
<p>I’m self-studying BC and I took AB last year. I spent the first 2 weeks of the semester brushing on my AB material. Just started on new BC material last week and I’m on polars now. I’ve been going a bit slow…</p>
<p>Okay, we’re doing differential equations for about a week or so…Chapter 9, then.</p>
<p>My class is doing series right now. Last class, we did p-series and determining whether series are geometric and finding the limit of such series. Where are you guys at?</p>
<p>^ We’re also in series/sequences right now.</p>
<p>Hey guys, when are you gonna start reviewing and what are you guys going to do for review?</p>
<p>I’m probably going to just review my notes the week before the exam since my class has been reviewing since the beginning of march</p>
<p>I never took AB and math comes to me fairly naturally so unlike a lot of people in my school I actually look forward to going to calc. We are teaching ourselves polar coordinates and parametric equations over spring break with a packet our teacher gave us, then hopefully regroup and go over stuff afterwards. Lol. I definitely need to brush up on error and estimation techniques using differentials though.</p>
<p>For those of you who’ve used the Barron’s AP Prep book for Calc BC, approximately how well did you do on the section questions and on the practice exams (as in how many questions did you usually miss)? How did this compare to how well you did on the actual BC exam?</p>
<p>Also, does anyone know if there’s a scoring rubric for the Barron’s exams that I could use to see what I should expect on the actual AP exam?</p>
<p>I’m asking because I’m consistently missing about 30% of the problems and I’m afraid I’ll only get a 3 at this rate. I need a 5 to opt out of calc at the college I’m looking at. Thanks!</p>
<p>Well, since I’m struggling, I got a tutor. I’m doing problems from the white prep book that we had to buy at the beginning of the year. There are 6 AP exams in there to do, so, yeah, that would probably help.</p>
<p>And looking at the textbook, the notes, old tests, old homework assignments…things like that.</p>
