Beginning Calculus

This test is designed for students enrolled in an introductory calculus course that requires the use of a graphing calculator. In addition to testing some calculus readiness concepts and skills, this test examines student facility with graphing calculators. Administering the test early in the course can provide information about students facility with graphing calculators.
