AP Calculus BC reviews and extends concepts from AP Calculus AB using a curriculum considerably more extensive than AP Calculus AB. Students must have a strong Mathematics foundation and should be able to make the important connections among the concepts learned. Since the BC exam covers more material than the AB test, it often offers students higher course placement, more course credit, and greater chance of acceptance at colleges with rigorous Math programs.

Our course covers an extensive study of functions, graphs, limits, derivatives, definite integrals, polynomial approximations and series, and their various applications. Vectors, polar graphs and parametric equations are included in developing the concepts. We emphasize a multi-representational approach to problem solving and focus on developing students’ understanding of Calculus concepts. The course provides experiences in theory, fundamentals, and applications.

Please see the AP Calculus AB test prep page for further details.
