AP Calculus AB is designed to follow the Calculus AB curriculum established by the College Board. The Calculus AB course is equivalent to one semester of college calculus (three to five credit hours). AB Calculus examines both differential and integral calculus and their applications, focusing on a wide variety of functions, and explores concepts such as limits and continuity thoroughly. Students in this course are expected to possess the determination and the initiative to take on a college-level course as well as the corresponding workload.

Note: Students taking this course are required to take the AP Calculus AB exam.
