Advanced Placement Calculus AB

Full-year course. This course will prepare students to take the College Board’s Advanced Placement Calculus AB Exam. Topics include limits, continuity, differentiation, integration, power series, plane curves, and elementary differential equations. Students will balance weekly short-answer questions with longer proof assignments to ensure a deep understanding of the concepts of calculus; the mix of assignments will give students time to practice applying the concepts learned when solving problems. Over the course of the year, students will complete previous AP Calculus AB exams in order to practice and feel confident about the test-taking strategies that will help them during the official exam.

Prerequisite: Completion of WTMA AoPS Pre-Calculus or a similar rigorous or honors level Pre-Calculus course; AoPS Calculus pre-test.
