Re: should I take the AP calc test?
I'm kind of regretting not taking this for some reason. I don't really know why. It wuold have been really easy, b/c I did well in math this year and had a great teacher. It was probably just b/c I didn't want to spend ~3 hours of my summer studying tbh.

It really is worth taking even if you don't feel you know the material that well.

Re: should I take the AP calc test?
I didn't study for the test. I really don't think you need to. If you're a good student then all the broad material you will need to do good on the test will already be nailed into your head.
Not to mention you need around a 30% to get a 3 on the test (which is usually the amount of points you need to test out of Calc 1 in college). If you need a 5 then I think you need a 59% or something. Just goes to show how hard the test can get, but if you're a good student you will most likely pass the test regardless.

why would u have to take a harder course, atleast at my school if you opt out of a class due to an A.P class you can take an elective of your choice in it's place [/ QUOTE ] I think you have to take 2 math courses in college for premed or something

Re: should I take the AP calc test?
take Calc in college, its a little different than high school test.
also, take the ap calc test because you may always wonder what you could have gotten

Re: should I take the AP calc test?
Take the test and ace it, so you don't have to re-take them in college. My roommate my freshman year could've taken Calc 3 his first semester because he got credit for Calc 1 and 2 via the AP exam. Instead of just going directly into Calc 3 though, he chose to start in Calc 2 and ended up failing it, and had to re-take it again the following semester [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]
