AP Calculus AB or BC

<p>I don’t get why people are saying the BC will be so hard. When I went to high school (a public non-magnet high school), they only offered a single class of calculus, on the BC syllabus (less than 10% of the students reached calculus in that high school at that time). And plenty of students did well in the course and on the AP test (as in A in the course and 5 on the AP test).</p>

<p>And if you reach calculus as a *high school sophomore<a href=“three%20years%20ahead%20of%20normal”>/i</a>, you are probably one of the top math students. You will probably find AB boringly slow; it covers about a semester of university freshman calculus over a year. BC is approximately the same pace as a university freshman calculus course that students zero years ahead in math are expected to be able to handle.</p>
