Calculus or AP Calculus
AP CALCULAS AP CALCULUS* is not the hardest math. Analysis, Set theory, Algebra, Topology, Calculus and Number Theory
At a minimum, I recommend AP Calculus.
No, AP Calculus is a far more difficult course.
Study every single thing in math
Somewhere between a 5-7 depending on how well you test and the internal assessments. As I understand it, Calculus AB is more in depth on calculus subjects than ib math but there are more topics in ib math.
AP Calculus AB is a post-secondary course that is also offered in many high schools. Students that score high on the AP exam may not have to take certain college math courses.
No, Just need to know your math and what you're doing.
You should know all the math from 6th grade.
The courses you can take really depend in the High School you are in (I will assume that you are referring to High School Courses). After algebra, most schools allow Pre Calculus. Pre Calculus is basically just like algebra two, just with more trigonometry and deeper exploration of math. Then, one can take the flower of math, Calculus. In schools that offer Advance Placement (AP) courses, will offer AP Calculus AB and AP Calculus BC. Calculus was divided into parts, here A, B and C. I have heard of a D section, but is not taught in many high schools. Separate from the Calculus course tree we have statistics. One can take statistics, followed by AP Stats. (One might be able to skip statistics should they be competent enough for AP Stats.) There is also a branch of Math called Discrete Mathematics, that concerns mostly on logic, that is separate from other math course tree.There could be other math courses, such as Further Mathematics, but the courses stated above are the most common courses offered.
Definitely AP Algebra (1)^2.
Check with your guidance counselor to see what your school's prerequisites are for AP Calculus.
