AP Calculus is a rigorous course that will provide students a challenge but can also have advantages such as the potential to earn college credits, improving the competitiveness of college applications and better preparing students for college-level work.
In AP Calculus has two tracks – AB and BC. The AP Calculus AB course covers concepts, methods, and applications of differential and integral calculus. The AP Calculus BC course, adds to the previously built Calculus knowledge and learn topics that are more advanced, for example parametric, polar, and vector functions, and series.
We cover the following topics as a part of our AP Calculus AB curriculum.
- Limits and continuity
- Differentiation: basic rules
- Differentiation: composite, implicit and inverse functions
- Contextual applications of differentiation
- Applications of derivatives to analyze functions
- Integration and accumulation change
- Differential equations
- Applications of integration
