AP® Calculus AB / Calculus
All Genders Course; Prerequisite - Successful completion of Pre-Calculus; Full Year Course
Course Overview
This full-year, college-level course in single-variable calculus covers the complete AP® Calculus AB curriculum. Major topics include limits and continuity, derivatives and their applications, integrals and their applications, and separable differential equations. Students learn to represent and solve problems algebraically, graphically, numerically, and verbally, and to explain their reasoning and answers in context. Through discussions, reflections, and projects, students apply calculus to real-world situations and build the habits of effective online learners.
This is a dual-track course, where students preparing for the AP® exam and non-AP® students learn alongside one another. AP® students also complete regular assignments that extend each unit, including practice with multiple-choice and free-response questions with and without a calculator, self-assessment against scoring keys, and focused attention on the written justification the exam rewards. This work is spread across the year so students build exam readiness steadily. Students enrolled in Calculus complete the core course only. Only the registered course title will appear on the transcript.
“I think the course is preparing me well for the AP exam and my teacher always takes the time to help me understand concepts through things like explanation videos for difficult problems.”
