[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I didn't see this mentioned upthread, but current calc students were taking algebra 1 via virtual learning, and California held on much longer with virtual than a lot of other places. We are in a different state, but my junior in calc BC has all kinds of holes from prealgebra in 6th (20-21 school year), which was mostly virtual. Lots of bad habits (yes, googling answers, not doing homework, etc). This shows up randomly, like in SAT prep.[/quote] (and after getting a 5 on AP Precalc)[/quote] Lots of people do very well in calculus even though they are horrible at algebra. I think this is because calculus is much easier to understand conceptually, so if the test is primarily on those concepts, you'll do well. The algebra part of calculus is where you'll mess up.[/quote] I challenge you to find anyone who does well in calculus who can't do algebra.[/quote]
