I would like to continue on learning calculus, but I'm not sure which courses would be the most appropriate to start off with. I've noticed there's many different flavors of calculus courses listed and I want to make sure I get in on the ground floor instead of jumping in way over my head. What I see on the site is: AP Calculus AB and BC, Calculus 1 and 2, Differential Calculus, Integral Calculus, Multivariable Calculus, Differential Equations, and Linear Algebra (which I'm not even sure is calculus). I'm not in any sort of AP class, so that probably eliminates those courses. Does anyone have any idea where to start?

Hello!

AP Calculus AB and Calculus 1 are the same courses, except for the fact that the former is taught in high school and the latter in college.

AP Calculus BC covers Calculus 1 and 2 and is more rigorous.

Differential and Integral Calculus are two different types of calculus.

Multivariable Calculus, Differential Equations, and Linear Algebra are very advanced courses that are taken after Calculus 1 and 2.

Therefore, I would start with Calculus 1.

I hope this was helpful, and good luck!

Hi, does that mean once you are through Calculus 1 and 2, you can move on to advanced courses such as Multivariable Calculus, Differential Equations and Linear Algebra without having to take Differential and Integral Calculus as they are part of AP Calculus BC (according to the internet)?
