[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If all four units are [b]taught [/b]in AP Precalc (per CB's curriculum), why is that not [b]enough [/b]to be prepared for AP Calc BC?[/quote] It is "enough" to get introduced to the topics. Just as in previous years of math, just introduction in a public school classroom is not sufficient. Introduction of concepts needs to be followed by solid practice (khan academy, textbook problems, workbooks, enrichment packets, etc) to develop proficiency. If you push your child to the reach for Calc BC, with just the introduction of precalculus concepts and skip necessary practice, your child may become frustrated, watching whom you are bound to feel miserable. Consider having them gain solid practice in Precalculus topics, then follow it up with a year AP Calc AB, and with that foundation, have them confidently approach AP Calc BC . [/quote]
