<p>That’s not true. Take a look at their [course</a> catalog](<a href=“Course Descriptions - Cornell University - Acalog ACMS™ ”>Course Descriptions - Cornell University - Acalog ACMS™ ). It reads the following:</p>
<p>
Topics include functions and graphs, limits and continuity, differentiation and integration of algebraic, trigonometric, inverse trig, logarithmic, and exponential functions; applications of differentiation, including graphing, max-min problems, tangent line approximation, implicit differentiation, and applications to the sciences; the mean value theorem; and antiderivatives, definite and indefinite integrals, the fundamental theorem of calculus, substitution in integration, the area under a curve. Graphing calculators are used, and their pitfalls are discussed, as applicable to the above topics.

<p>That is the same classic calculus 1 course that essentially all universities use and is the basis for AP Calculus AB. You couldn’t do the typical calculus 2 (or BC) things without having this as calculus 1 first.</p>
