[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You get an AB sub score when taking BC, because BC covers all AB material plus a little more. If your kid needs to slow down and do AP+BC, that’s fine, but it’s a little silly to claim it’s because they want a strong foundation. Literally tens of thousands of strong students end up with a 5 after going straight to BC.[/quote] You have NO clue how many of the BC 5s skipped AB. My kid got 5 on both. So did another 30+ kids at our HS. Because they require AB before taking BC. The co rent of an is covered in 2-3 week refresher at start of BC. [/quote] The majority of schools do either AB or BC, most students getting a 5 on BC don’t also do AB. You are lying about the AB content being covered in 2-3 weeks. Then what, they spend one year on sequences and series, ie 2 chapters out of 10? The BC class moves faster, it’s true, but not to the extent you claim. Plenty of students can handle it.[/quote]
