What are the primary differences between AB and BC? Given the score distributions for 2007, it is a confusing question.

The current class is in integrals. By the time of the test they will have covered antiderivatives, slope fields and integrals, applications of integrals and differential equations. (Already covered limits and continuity, derivatives and rates of change, graphing functions and applications of derivatives.

Daughter is getting a solid A to A+ in a large public high school.

The test will be used for college class placement, only. To get into the class she wants, she needs a 4 or a 5 on the AB test or a 3 on the BC test.

Thanks for your thoughts.
