Finishing our last unit!
Today in class, we learned how to begin our journals. Also, we watched our conic sections and parametric equation videos, which were pretty informative. Our polar unit is now finished and I feel confident after doing the review sheet -
Starting AP Review
Today in class, we started reviewing for the AP Exam.Today we went over integration techniques and basic derivatives/antiderivatives. I must say that it really helps to get a quick refresher from things we learned in the beginning of the year. -
Differential Equation Review
We started to go over concepts related to differential equations in class today such as the logistics formula and Euler's method. I understand all of this, but know I need to practice a few problems from this unit in order to memorize the formulas for the test. -
Free Response Practice Test
Today in class, we completed three practice free response questions with a partner. Some of the parts were easy to complete and had obvious answers, but others were not so easy to understand. Having a partner helped though, and I hope tomorrow's free responses will be more understandable. -
Practice Free Response Part II
Today in class, we completed three more free responses with a partner. Even though we didn't get to use calculators, I feel like these were easier to get through than yesterday's. -
Infinite series review
Today is the last day before spring break and we went over infinite series. I was able to refresh my memory about topics like convergence/ divergence and the different tests for series -
Advanced Integration Techniques
Today we reviewed integration techniques. Some topics that we went over included integration by parts, partial fractions and improper integrals. -
Practice AP Test Grading and Review
Today we went over some of the answers from our multiple choice and free response from before spring break. After grading it and reviewing my answers, I got a 4. I am happy with this and hopefully I will be able to do even better on the actual test. -
Taylor Series and Power Series
Today, we completed a worksheet concerning taylor series and power series, which refreshed my memory about the radius and interval of convergence. -
Area and Volume
Today, we went over topics such as area and volume using integration. I feel pretty confident solving these types of problems, so hopefully they will be asked on the test. -
Post Exam Reaction
Taking the test wasn't as bad as I thought it was going to be. The multiple choice section was pretty easy, and I didn't have guess for most of it. However, the free response section was harder and there were parts that I had trouble with, like # 6. OVerall, I think it went ok!
