In this video I do a speed run through the 2012 AP Calculus BC Practice Exam. I go through 28 multiple choice questions (no calculator) outlining strategies for all of the major topics that show up on the AP Calculus BC exam.
I do no own the rights to the AP Calculus BC Practice Exam. This practice exam was released by college board to the public, so I put together this ad free video to help students prepare for the AP Calculus BC exam.
For question 22, I propose an easier method of approach. Since it is a power series, by its definition we can determine the center of convergence (c=3), and since we know the series converges at x=5, the radius of convergence must be at least 2. So then our confirmed interval of convergence would be (1,5). Since we don’t have enough information the test the the endpoint at x =1, we don’t know if it diverges or converges, so B C are not correct answers. X=0 and x=6 are both outside our confirmed interval of convergence, thus leaving only x=2 (D) as the only option. We know this answer is correct because it falls in our confirmed interval of convergence.
you're so good at explaining, i understand a lot of concepts better now
Thank you for the kind comment! I am glad the concepts clicked! How was the AP test?
@@vinteachesmath I think he or she did good because of how good your videos are.
Bro this guy is fast like sonic. After watching this I develop new skills by the minute. Thanks!
Happy to help! 🏃💨
@@vinteachesmath thanks
thank you so much for this video! Explanations are so helpful
Glad it was helpful! i hope your AP test went well!
Appreciate the work man! Got my AB AP Test soon this came in clutch
may 24th too, huh
Hope your test went well!
How did it go?
This was extremely helpful. Great explanations.
Glad to hear it!
dont care
Very helpful video! It was also nice that the video length is the same as the time it takes for this section.
I try to make these videos somewhat fast-paced to mimic what the actual AP exam would be like. I hope your AP exam goes well!
Great explanation! It was really helpful, thank you!
Glad it was helpful! Best wishes preparing for your AP Calc Exam!
Thank you!!!! This really helped!
You're welcome!
Could you please present a counterexample @41:55 for question 22 part D i can't see why for x=2 it doesn't converge every check that i did showed it converges.
Thank you, Vin!
Welcome!
I seriously can not thank you enough. Wish me luck on my AP Exam next week!
Good luck on your AP test! I hope it goes well! Awesome work preparing this far in advance.
@@vinteachesmath thank you man, I will give it my all.
@@scoopduna good luck tomorrow man I’m kinda nervous
@@SkippyMC haha yeah man, it certainly will not be easy. All we can do is give it our all, so just give it your best tomorrow man. Good luck!
@@scoopduna what did you get
I'm confused about question 13. How do you know it is centered at 4 and the inequality means that the radius of convergence means it is sqrt3? I tried doing ratio test and am now confused. Please help! thank you!!!
This was very helpful! Can you go over more practice for the calc bc exam?
I released the calculator portion of this practice test recently! Best wishes for your AP test!
sure my child
OMG!! this is amazing thank u sir
Glad you like it!
The video was very helpful for next weeks exam.
Glad it helped and I hope your test goes well!
I did AP calc AB And BC over 12 years ago when I was in HS lol. Idk how I was able to do all this with ease 😂😂😂
I forgot a lot of the math that I did as a math major 12 years ago! I am sure if you had to do it again, you could!
Thanks a ton! Helped me a lot!
You're welcome!
did i ask
Thank you so much!!!!
You're welcome!
Lifesaver here tysm
Best wishes on your AP exam!
My teacher literally just gave this as a practice quiz for the ap test. I got a 12/28... man I have a long way to go still
I hope the AP test went well for you!
why isn't number have the x, is that cause we derived and thats just 1 ?
isnt the answer for question 2 sin(x)+sin(y)?
For question 5, arent you supposed to use the absolute value of R, making it positive 3/4, thus making the sum 4?
No you're not
for questions like 6, why should we translate the integral into 13 and -2 instead of the original number 4 and -1?
i dont know
oh. its because u used u subsitution. when u use u sub u have to plug your limts back into u to get new limites
Just wondering, do you go over questions 28-76 somewhere?
These tests are numbered weirdly. Someday I will know why they skip all those questions in between. Maybe so the calculator section really stands out...
@@vinteachesmath I see! Well thank you for all your videos and explanations, they’re really helpful! And happy teacher appreciation week 🎉
i dont know my child
thanks king
Happy to help!
Hey man great video. I understood every part except the polar areas. Do I need to be worried about those questions cuz let me be honest, I don't know a single thing about polar areas cuz I never learned it. I hope they don't have a big influence on the test.
Unit 9 (parametric/polar) makes up 10-11% of the exam. I think of polar area as area formed by a windshield wiper, the two angles theta1 and theta2 tells you where the windshield wiper starts and stops.
There is plenty of time to get good at unit 9. Really think about what it means to plot points in polar, that will make it easier to find polar area.
THANK YOU
Welcome!
at number 11, doesn't every function that are continuous differentiable?
no. every function that is differntiable is continous
Wouldn't #9 (sum of n!/n^100) converge? If n = 200, then 200! < 200*100 and because the denominator is bigger, the series should converge right?
Although the denominator is bigger for n = 200, as n approaches infinity, n factorial will become larger. The rate of growth for n factorial surpasses any constant a value n^a for sufficiently large values of n. the only value that n can be raised to in order to surpass n factorial is n (the rate of growth for n^n surpasses n factorial).
i really saw this the night after i took the ap exam
Is there an easier method for 26 because that seems like way to effort for a MC question that you have 2 minutes to solve
If you memorize the formula, you can get right into it. I try to show a lot of questions in a way that you don't need to have everything memorized. Think of the two minutes as the average time. There will be plenty of easy questions that you can answer in under 30 seconds, that puts more time in the bank for you to think about the harder questions. Good luck tomorrow!
for questions like 5, i thought the maclaurin series involved the nth derivative and the factorials?
Those are the series expansions of maclaurin series. This is the “unexpanded” part, i think. I barely understood this unit😭, but i hope this made sense
@@bossbee4ever ahh that would make sense, thank you 😩
The formula involving the nth derivative and factorials is when you have to build the Maclaurin Series yourself. In that question they were polite and wrote the series for us. The big idea for question 5 was evaluating a geometric series.
@@vinteachesmath Okay, thank you!
man, sorry your name is michelle
Thx G
You are welcome! Best wishes for your AP test!
u are welcome
Dude this was so helpful! My test is tomorrow. Do you have a Patreon so I can send you money lmfao
are we all studying the day before the test lmao?
can you please explain ap spanish im failing thanks!!!
No entiendo español! But good luck!
I was a having an existential crisis figuring out the difference between c and d for question 12 19:13
Math has been known to do it that, LOL! Hope your AP exam(s) went well.
24:13 so easy that its difficult?
why is Saul Goodman teaching me calc Bc
Better call vinteachesmath!
2 days left
yea bro im fucked
@@rickyhenderson163 on the bright side you need like less than a 50 to get a 4
@@lucasmacaraeg1537 good luck to you bro, I'm aiming for a 4 and I'm still extremely nervous
