Pre Calc Dual Enrollment to Increase Ivy League Chances?

[gibby]

Why would you concurrently take Calc AB and Calc BC?

Calc BC includes everything in Calc AB, plus a few extra topics – so it’s basically taking the SAME COURSE twice, but one course includes a bit more stuff. My suggestion: Keep Calc BC and REPLACE Calc AB with another course. See: http://apcentral.collegeboard.com/apc/public/courses/220300.html

AP Calculus BC includes all topics in AP Calculus AB, plus others such as parametric, polar, and vector functions, and series. It is equivalent to one year of calculus at most colleges and universities.
