[quote=Anonymous]I have an APS senior. All the strongest math students take AP Calc BC junior year. Then the ones headed to STEM majors in college take MV Calc AP senior year, while some of the others decide to pursue other things like AP Stats. The decision really depends on which track the kid is on. For many years, the class before calc was either pre calc or pre calc intensified. The intensified class prepared the students to go right into AP Calc BC by teaching most of Calc A, and then I think they probably did a quick review in the beginning of Calc BC. Now I am hoping the same is true with the new PreCalcAP curriculum, as I have a younger kid now on this track who also wants to take BC. This is my experience in APS, I'm sure other schools differ. But the question is whether the track your kid is on has prepared them to jump into Calc BC or not. So ask that question. [/quote]
