What previous students had to say..-This is not an easy class. But if you are willing to put in the time and effort, then you MIGHT make it out alive... haha just kidding! But really, if you do put in the time and effort, you will learn a lot and you will do just fine!

-BUY THE AP CALCULUS STUDY GUIDE BOOK AND FLASHCARDS. They will give you extra learning material and will totally prepare you for the test. I made the mistake of not getting one this year and overall, I feel like I have potential to know all the given material if I did buy it.What previous students had to say..Be prepared to put in work, especially if you're playing one or two sports. The workload is medium and that might affect your grade if you play a sport like football.

Don't be afraid to ask questions. Come after school or before school if you need extra help. Keep up with the homework, and the quizzes will be really easy. Get a study guide.

Be ready and don't slack off. Always do homework or you will be left behind.
