“Since we don’t have AP Calculus text books, my students will be at a disadvantage in that they will not have a good resource for practice problems. Just like the ACT or SAT, practicing problems like the ones on the actual exam is a vital part of good preparation. With these materials, we will have a good supply of practice problems.” - Ms. Mangum, Louisiana
