AP Calculus BC
2019-2020
Mr. Studley
Summer Supplement
Congratulations! You made it to AP Calculus BC! In order to complete the curriculum before the AP Exam in May, it is necessary to do some preparatory
work this summer. This packet will help you to focus on the mathematical skills and content you will
need to use in solving Calculus problems. These problems deal with skills and content that you studied
in Precalculus and AP Calculus AB. Use your Pre-Calculus and Calculus notes to help you solve the
review problems. There are many websites on the internet that can also be helpful in completing these
problems.
You are responsible for completing this assignment by the first day of the new school year. The
assignment will be collected and graded. In order to receive full credit, complete your work on separate
paper. Justify your answers. Graphs must be carefully drawn and labeled. If a calculator has been used,
then you must set up what you entered into the calculator and what the calculator produced for you on
your paper. This supplement is a review of AP Calculus AB topics. For a review of Precalculus topics
please contact me at [email protected].
At this level, doing homework is more than just getting the problems done. The problems should be a
learning experience. Do not leave the entire assignment for the night before school starts. Feel free
to send me an email to [email protected] if you have any questions.
You are ahead of most students taking AP Calculus BC because you have already completed the AB
course. Roughly 80% of the BC course is the AB course. The additional topics are extensions of AB
topics and then there are new BC topics. We are ahead of the game, but it does not mean we will go at a
leisurely pace. You will be expected to work hard and work fast. The 2020 AP Calculus exam will take
place Tuesday May 5, 2020. My goal is to be done with the curriculum around April 1 giving us a month
or more of practice. And you will be ready to score a 5 on that exam!

Many thanks to the mathematics staff at Durfee High School in Fall River, MA for their help in constructing this
supplement.
Enjoy the summer! See you in September!
Yours in Calculus,
