About This Course
In this calculus course, you will learn all the Calculus BC topics that are not part of the AP® Calculus AB curriculum by engaging with video instruction, exam-style questions and interactive activities.
Each topic is broken up into bite-sized pieces—with short instructional videos, interactive graphs, and practice problems written by many of the same people who write and grade your AP® Calculus exams.
Topics include:
- L’Hospital’s Rule
- Parametric Equations
- Introduction to Series
- Series Convergence
- Series Manipulation
- Arclength
- Euler’s Method
- Improper Integrals
- Integration Techniques: Partial Fractions
- Integration Techniques: Integration by Parts
- The Calculus of Polar Functions
This course is specifically designed for students who have already taken (or are currently enrolled in) Calculus AB. This course combined with a traditional Calculus AB course will prepare students to take the Calculus BC exam.
