how to study for ap calculus

<p>depends… if you’re taking the class and you have a good teacher, then take good notes and study along (and then a little review the night before… that’s what i did [since i had a great teacher] and i got a 5)… now, for independent study or a bad teacher scenario, then get a couple of books, read over the chapters, do plenty of problems, and make calculus 2nd nature for you</p>

<p>easiest thing –> basic differentiation and basic integration… and limits (since calculus is basically based on limits)</p>

<p>hardest thing –> rotational volume problems (not really “hard” per se, but if you screw up one little tiny detail, you’ll be completely wrong)</p>

<p>this is for AB, by the way… i’m taking BC next year, so i can’t say anything about BC… but it’s supposed to be considerably easier than AB since 60% of the BC exam is still AB stuff (so it’s “old” stuff)</p>
