I failed another test today! Yay!

So as advised by SinbadEV, I've created this thread for help. Its only highschool level stuff.

I suppose I'm worried because Im failing after just the first chapter, which is about Limits.

Calculus was fun, but I stopped after 3rd semester calculus because I found that the more esoteric topics didn't interest me.

I... took calculus last year, and got an A, and a 5 on the AP test.
go me
So... I would be able to help... Except for the fact that I forgot almost everything over the summer.

I might still be able to help though...

edit: I seem to remember that after the first chapter it gets much easier, because it's less stuff that you learned once and have since forgotten and more cool fun awesome calculus.

Doing the same shiit as you are, cept I'm on BC so my first exam includes more than just limits. I've got a cool teacher though, they say he plays WoW. :shock:

Well, just ask away I guess. Though for my money unless you're haveing problems with the concepts your best bet is to get some past exam papers and work through them with the aid of books and the internet.

Limits are what a number appears to be as you get closer and closer too it.
