Deltamath.com Information:
- This class will be using www.deltamath.com as a resource for extra practice and/or remediation. It is free to use. The course code is 617189.
- For each unit, there will be extra practice that can be done before the test or done after the test for remediation purposes (to prepare for the retest).
- I would highly encourage students to complete the extra practice BEFORE the test.
- If students need to retest, they will be required to complete remediation BEFORE retesting.
- Students who score below a 79 on any test may retake that test for credit up to a 79%.
- Students must complete remediation BEFORE retesting.
- Retests can be done after school during regularly scheduled tutoring times.
- Students must sign up 24 hours in advance if they plan to attend tutoring so that I can have the necessary materials printed out (I do not have a printer in my room).
- Retests on a unit must be done before the next unit test. For example, if you want to retest on unit 2, you must retest on unit 2 BEFORE the unit 3 test.
- Only one retest will be given. If the student does worse on the retest, the original grade will stand.

Davidson NEXT Online Coursework for Challenging Topics in AP Calculus:
- The link below is an excellent resource for students who are looking to get some extra help on the most challenging topics in Calculus AB. While not everything we cover is covered by this program, it is an EXCELLENT resource with instructional videos, visual aids, and practice problems.
- This is offered for FREE in partnership with Davidson College. I would highly encourage everyone to use this. We will use this some in class, but this is a great tool to use for extra help as well.
- You will need to register with a username and password, but once you do, you will be able to access all of the excellent resources here.
Instructional Videos for AP Calculus:
http://online.math.uh.edu/apcalculus/ - This link has instructional videos for all of the major topics covered in AP Calculus AB and BC. It is an excellent resource if you need additional remediation on a specific topic.
Additional FREE resource with EXCELLENT instructional videos and some good practice questions:
Another great resource is www.getafive.com
- Visit getafive.com and click on "I'm a student".
- On the students page, choose "AP Calculus AB".
- On the AP Calculus AB page, click on the "Enroll now" button.
- Create an account or log in if you're already signed up.
- You're now in your personal Study Room.
- Click on the "Join a Class" tab on the left and enter this code: UJXACE3
There is a class already created for Mr. Brust. Use that code above to access it.
FREE Online Downloadable Textbook with Activities Organized by General Topics:
This is another great resource for extra practice: http://scholarworks.gvsu.edu/books/10/
AP Calculus AB Released Multiple Choice and Free Response Questions
Looking for additional resources that have rigorous AP-style questions? If you simply do a Google search for released multiple choice and free-response questions for AP Calculus AB, you will find a TON out there that has been publicly released by the College Board. I would encourage you to use them to help you study. I would try to stick to questions from the last 15 years or so. Older questions tend to be easier and not as well-aligned with the modern AP Calculus AB curriculum.
Another Excellent Web Site:
http://mrtigercalculus.weebly.com/old-ap-calculus-abbc.html
This teacher's site has notes, as well as practice problems and solutions for both AP Calculus AB and BC. This is another excellent resource for additional help.
Recommended (Optional) AP Calculus Practice Books:
1. Barron's AP Calculus 13th Edition. It makes a great gift for the holidays!
2. Princeton Review AP Calculus Practice Book
