Series Details

About

This series will preview various essential concepts necessary for AP Calculus AB and BC. We will frequently engage in helpful practice problems to strengthen your knowledge, problem-solving capabilities, and familiarity with the content. By the end of this series, you will feel more than ready to enter your upcoming AP Calculus course! Below are the topics I am hoping to cover each week (I will gradually add the sessions to this series): Week 1: Orientation Week 2: Limits and Continuity Week 3: Differentiation Week 4: Integration Week 5: Parametric equations, polar coordinates, and vector-valued functions Week 6: Infinite series It would also be preferable if you went into this series with a solid understanding of Precalculus, although that is not required.
