We learned about L'Hopital's Rule today, and on Monday we're learning improper integrals. Right now we're in our integration techniques unit.

God, my class is so far behind. We've recently finished related rates, but I have a good teacher and Calc BC is not bad in general, so I'll be fine probably.

We are working on differential equations now (separable equations, slope fields, etc.).

We're on the stuff with integrating rotating solids and cross-sections, etc.

We're about halfway through our second nine-weeks (3/4 through the semester) and we've done derivatives (the different rule), applications of the derivative (optimization, l'hopital's rule, modeling with geometry, parametrics), and definite integrals (fundamental theorem, riemann sums, how to measure distance traveled). We're starting integration tomorrow.

I'm curious. Do people here find these topics interesting? Boring?

AP Calculus BC is much more fun than AB, with all the techniques in series and integration, I find it pretty cool to be able to tackle problems in many ways using a variety of skills as well as get to understand the proofs behind everything.
~As the history and English teacher's laud--there is more than one way to answer a question--unlike math--but I'd like to disagree with that statement right there :P

We stopped at series in October and began doing Calculus again in the third quarter now, finally at Taylor Polynomials the last topic.

^ I'm also curious, as I'm self-studying for BC (having taken AB last year) and am wondering how far along I should be.

Finished entire curriculum. We are now reviewing for the ap. Teacher went very fast, but taught it well.

We are skipping around a little in our textbook. Right now we are in the unit with vectors and parametric functions (the last chapter in our textbook). After that all we have left is the chapter on sequences and series or whatever (I hear it's the hardest unit by far).
