This fifth-year math class is a college‑level course of instruction in differential and integral calculus with a primary emphasis on real‑world applications. This course includes a study of limits, functional continuity, derivatives, and integrals with trigonometric, exponential, and logarithmic functions and with multiple variables. It also includes graphing, optimization, differential equations, and slope fields. This course will prepare the Senior for the Advanced Placement Test which provides the student with an opportunity to receive college credit. Because of the rigorous pace of this college-level course, students will be required to complete an extensive summer review packet which is due on the first day of school and will count as a test grade for Quarter 1. This packet will cover the prerequisite skills and concepts necessary to be successful in this course.
There is a College Board fee for the MANDATORY AP exam. By selecting an Advanced Placement course, scholars are required to take the national AP exam for that course which is administered in May. The cost of each AP exam is $98.00.
