Hey /sci, tomorrow is my AP calculus test, and I wanted to know if there was anything you believe I should cram.
Fuck if I know
If you don't know how to do everything already then you're fucked
>>8051091
I know how to do most things, but I was looking for tricks, shortcuts, or any advice from anyone who has taken the test.
>>8051070
take one of these calculators
>>8051112
It's 4:31 am in my country and I'm gonna do it at 8:00 am, we had a great calculus teacher who made this great summery and all the topics that will come in the free response which are:
1)areas and volumes
2)velocity and acceleration
3)differentiation
4)differential eq. And implicit differentiation
5)slope fields
6)riemann sums
7)rate of change
I might add no student got below a 4 with him, and when I do it I'll give you some tips, and did your teacher give you any multiple choice questions?
+C

Much appreciated, it's currently 8:55 PM where I am
Proof of the inverse function theorem.

this
Just did it, goddamn what a exhausting exam
>>8051948
How was it
>>8051070
Instead of using limits of riemann sums wrt mesh of partition when determining definite integrals, go ahead and skip straight to the fundamental theorem of calculus.

How about you kill yourself you underage twat.
>>8051170
Fuck man you're giving me PTSD-style flashbacks.
>>8052252
maybe he is just an old brainlet?
If he is he fill all the necessary criterias
>>8052252
You can be 18 and a senior in highschool which is when most people take AP calculus
>>8052252
(you)
I think I made a 2 or a 1 on mine.
>>8051112
Learn how to differentiate under the integral sign.
JUST
>>8052762
The free response shit honestly wasn't that bad. The first section of the multiple choice raped me though.
>>8052762
I do not know what you are taking about anon because a signed a statement saying I wouldnt understand what you are referring to
AB or BC?
>>8052811
Just took the BC exam. Pretty sure I got a 5, considering that pretty much anything better than a 65-70 is a 5.
>>8052762
The funnel one was easy for me. What was hard about it for you?
I took the bc exam and im considering killing myself because I was totally prepared for the exam and knew how to do all the questions and took practice test to guage my skill and time(got 4s and 5s), but 2 days before the test i got 5 hours of sleep and the night of the exam I fell asleep from 9 to 1 and woke up. I couldnt fall back asleep till 5:30 and I woke at 6:30.
I took amphetamines to try to help with the symptoms of sleep deprivation in the morning but I was unbearably groggy and brainfogged because of how little sleep I got. I ran out of time on part A mc and had to guess on like 6, and I didnt answer 1 whole FR question. Other than that I think I did ok but I just know I made a bunch of hidden little shitty errors because I was sleep deprived as a motherfucker through no real fault of my own. It really sucks because I know I could have gotten a 5 easily if only i had gotten 8 hours of sleep.
I always sleep like a baby for at least 9 hours as well. Its not fair I was struck with a sudden bout of insomnia the night before the exam. I tried chamomile, massive amounts of melatonin, magnesium, and kava but i was only able to get an hour of shuteye after I drank a beer at 5:30. Im fucking stupid.
Drill yourself on the rules of differentiation (exponent rule, product rule, chain rule). There are tons of example problems you can do, just practice them. Practice implicit differentiation. Make sure you know how to do linear approximation and the left/right rectangle methods of integration. Finally, you should have your trig identities and derivatives memorized.
I would rate the experience a 6/10. Would be better if I didn't have a headache through the last bit of it.
>>8052059
it was easy as piss. I'm 95% sure I got a 5, otherwise 4. AB btw.
>>8052762
what did you guys put for the volume of the funnel?
>>8053176
2209/40 * pi or something like that
>>8053182
nice, same here. guess we got it right xd
>>8051070
If you don't get a 5 on AP calc, you're probably subhuman.
>>8053182
thats what i got too, thanks god i thought id fucked that up for sure
>>8052762
rephrase that question as: what is the volume of the line x = 1/20 (3+y^2) rotated around the y axis? the funnel shit was just to meme you
>>8053192
Very true and a good tip
>>8053182
>mfw I think had the original right answer and erased it and redid some work because i thought i was wrong
>>8053197
the funnel shit was there to relate it to related rates tho
>>8053331
there was a related rates one and a volume one. The volume one was JUSTy
This thread makes me feel bad.
>>8053182
>tfw forgot to square the 1/20, so I get (2209*pi)/2
>>8053387
4/3 iirc
>>8053437
Ayy, nice.
>mfw the survey questions asked about my course
>mfw my school wouldnt let me take the course so i learnt it on my own
>mfw ez 5
>>8053379
for what purpose?
>>8052762
[math]\int_{0}^{10} \pi(\frac{1}{20}(3+h^{2}))^{2}dh = \frac{2209\pi}{40}[/math]
>>8051223
This?
[math]
f(g(x)) = x
\\f'(g(x))·g'(x) = 1
\\g'(x) = \frac{1}{f'(g(x))}
[/math]
Where g(x) is the inverse of f(x)
>>8053572
No.

I'm a senior in high school (18) and I have my math exam next week. I literally haven't done anything for the past 4 years besides jerking off, drinking and trying to fit in with the rest of the people trying to fit in.
I looked into my math books for the first time in 2 months and I didn't understand jack shit.
Wish me luck senpai
>>8053707
What test?
Is it AP Calc? I thought everyone took it on the same day?
>>8053712
I live in Europe and I wouldn't know the english name for the test. It's mostly about logarithm, unit circles and differentiating. A lot of bullshit with trigonometric functions that I don't understand
Calculus is easy. It should come pretty easily to anyone competent in algebraic operations and memorization
