About the course
It’s been said that change is the only true constant. Calculus helps make sense of change by grappling with questions that inspire thinkers from around the globe, across time, and in many disciplines. Can change occur in an instant? When is the next solar eclipse or the turning point for an economy? In AP Calculus BC, you’ll cover many of the mathematical principles in AP Calculus AB and build upon them. AP Calculus BC helps you prepare for further study in mathematics and other disciplines, such as engineering, computer science, or economics.
