<p>50isthenew40’s description sounds about right. DS’s calc BC class covered calc 1 (AP calc AB) in the first semester of senior year and calc 2 (AP calc BC) in the second semester. He earned a 5 on both the calc AB and calc BC exams by taking the AP calc BC exam only. When he took the calc placement exam at his university, he placed into calc 3 which seems to support that calc BC covers both calc 1 and 2. As 50new40 pointed out, calc BC doesn’t skip any content. Sorry if I misled you about the importance of calc AB before calc BC. DS just clarified all this for me. Sounds like your DD can/should go right into calc BC if she’s done the precalc work. I would definitely petition the school/school board to let her go into the BC class.</p>
