[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Does your son think he can learn at a college pace as a 10th grader? BC Calculus teaches the material as fast as if you were learning it in college (each semester in BC is equivalent to a semester of calc in college). AB stretches an entire semester of calculus over a year. I second the idea of talking to the math department chair. They will have an idea of how well honors pre-calc prepares kids for the faster pace of BC.[/quote] AP Calc BC is part of an overall *faster* pace than college. College students take 4-5 courses per semester. High school students take 6-8. Most AP courses are one semester of credit for one year of course. [/quote]
