Re: AP Tests Loom

Well here's a more enlightening view. I never had Calculus in high school but now that I have it in college I think it is pretty easy for the most part. It is just limits, derivatives and antiderivatives. For limits, there are only a few rules for evaluating them. You just need to see if this goes up to infiniti, then does that go too or does it go down to zero or some other number or what? For derivatives you just multiply the coefficient by the exponent and subract one from the exponent. For antiderivatives, it is just where derivatives come from. So you add one to the exponent and divide the coefficient by the exponent. I would mention integrals but that is pretty much just more antiderivatives. So, BAM! There you have it, Calculus. Easy.
