Can I take both Calculus AB and Calculus BC courses in the same school year?

You can, but we don’t recommend it. AP Calculus AB and AP Calculus BC each correspond to year-long university courses, and you need to understand the AP Calculus AB content before you can understand AP Calculus BC content.

Note: You cannot take both the Calculus AB and Calculus BC exams in the same school year. Even if you’re taking both AP Calculus courses, you must choose only one AP Calculus Exam to take.
