Calculus is a serious course. This isn't like a history course where you just memorize a bunch of facts.
Colleges use calculus as a filter to weed out students. It's a landmine, and you need to avoid getting your leg blown off.
To put this in perspective, colleges report a 50% dropout rate related to Calculus

I forget the exact number but at least 25% of engineering students drop out because of this one class. One-half of WGU's math department is devoted just to helping students get through that one Calculus class.
That SL Calculus course expires July 31st. If you want to take any chance of that course going away and you becoming fked than be my guest but don't say we didn't warn you.
Taking calculus in Study.com, CLEP, whatever is wasting your time in my opinion. Get through the SL Calculus course, save your sanity and move on with life.
Take notes & write down every single formula you do. Break it down into little steps and you get through it with a 90%+ success rate. Follow the proven path, don't go wandering in the woods in random directions hoping to get somewhere.

A few of these courses I'm a bit emotional about as I went through literally hell to get through them.

I´m seeing this model at a lower price than the other Nspire CAS calculators, and they deliver to Peru, would this one be a good one?
