US high school student studying AP Calculus AB

Month 1–2: limits and continuity

Master limit notation and one-sided limits before rushing to derivatives. AP examiners deduct marks for sloppy limit statements even when the final answer is correct.

Month 3–4: differentiation rules

Chain rule, product rule, and implicit differentiation need daily practice — not one marathon session. Alternate textbook problems with past FRQ prompts.

Month 5–6: integrals and exam papers

Switch to timed sections: 15-minute FRQ blocks and full MCQ sets. Review every lost mark with a tutor — AP Calc rewards method, not just answers.
