CalculusA course in single-variable calculus. This course covers limits, continuity, derivatives and their applications, definite and indefinite integrals, infinite sequences and series, plane curves, polar coordinates, and basic differential equations. This course is approved by the College Board as an AP Calculus BC class for students in grades 9-12, however, "AP exam preparation" is not the main focus of the course. |

Who Should Take?
Students who wish to enroll in Calculus should be able to easily solve most or all of the problems on the diagnostic test above without using a calculator.
Students who do not have a solid algebra background will not be successful in a good calculus course. It is vital that students have mastered the basic high-school math curriculum—algebra, geometry, trigonometry—before attempting a calculus course. Also, this class is considerably more difficult than a typical high-school calculus course, as there will be a greater emphasis on solving hard problems and less emphasis on "routine" calculations.
