Advanced Placement Calculus Practice for Students and Teachers

 Website:  AP Calculus Practice

 

Advanced Placement Calculus teachers and students are invited to participate in an Advanced Placement Calculus (AB or BC) practice examination, Saturday, April 23, 2011, on the University of Arizona campus.

The practice exam will be given in the morning and we will review the solutions and grading standards of the Free Response section in the afternoon.  Since we will grade the Multiple Choice portion of the exam while the students are working on the Free Response problems, every student will know their grade (1-5) on the exam when the afternoon session is completed.  Once the practice exam has begun, teachers are invited to share ideas.  It is not mandatory that you attend, but, if at all possible, it is highly encouraged. Registration is available on line at http://crr.math.arizona.edu/outreach.php
