  9. Teacher Comments • The class is a college-level class. Even though we have a whole year to cover what is done in one semester at the college level, the class still moves more quickly than a normal high-school class. There are a lot of topics to cover and a lot of work to do. Students must be prepared to read and do work outside of class.

  10. Commitment to completing class assignments on time is an absolute essential element of the class. Time management skills are also necessary to finish assignments • Grades in Calculus are very strongly determined by a student’s performance on exams • Students must be organized, responsible and willing to ask for help themselves.
