Okay..SO I am senior in High School and I have so far taken 11 AP Classes and with this year I will have 18 AP Classes. My method obviously doesn't work because I have only passed 6 of the 11 and have NEVER gotten a 5. This year should be different. Please let me know an Awesome way to 5. Thanks!

When I was in college, calculators were forbidden on all calculus exams and quizzes. In fact, many universities still forbid the use of calculators. Why are calculators, such as the TI-89, even permitted on such exams as the SAT and AP? I'm a recent college graduate and I was allowed to use...

Hello forum, I'm a high school senior, who is taking a AP Calculus course, I enjoy math a lot and I'm attending Missouri S&T next fall to pursue a degree in physics. My problem is my AP Calculus teacher is not a very good teacher, I've even talked to others in my class about this and most of...

I needed help on this AB Calculus Free Response Question: A particle moves along the x-axis do that its velocity $v$ at time $t \ge 0$ is given by $v(t) = \sin( t^2)$ for the interval $0 \le t \le \sqrt{5\pi}$. The position of the particle at time $t$ is $x(t)$ and its position at time $t = 0$...

Hello, I was wondering if I should take the AP Calculus AB exam first or just take the AP Calculus BC exam. I am currently learning AP Calculus BC and my friends say that you have to take both in order to get college credit for both (I'm skeptical of this). Since AP Calculus BC covers the same...

Hello, I want to take the AP Statistics test within 3 months and I need to have a statistics book to start preparing for it. What books do you recommend for any student who needs all the necessary information to study for an AP Statistics exam and be able to pass with a 5? By book I mean...
