Pre-calculus covers the basics you will need for calculus, including exponents, algebraic formulas and solving equations. Calculus is where mathematics and physics intersect - you can calculate the speed and velocity from a nonlinear function describing the distance traveled at a given time.
Well it depends on which calculus class you are longing for. If you want AB Calculus then you are not required to take pre-calculus; however you must finish all of state's required math courses. Which is probably Algebra, geometry, algebra 2/trig.If you want BC calculus, you need Pre calc and all of the required math classes. BC calculus is a lot more difficult and it will require a lot more time after school. If you are not willing to spend as much time as required , dont dare to take it
Yes, most premed students do take 3 semesters of calculus in college.
You must have a strong basis in Algebra, Algebra II, Geometry and Trigonometry. Usually high schools offer a pre-Calculus course which is somewhat of a conglomeration of the aforementioned courses. Then you would move into differential calculus, integral calculus, vector (multi-variable) calculus, and finally differential equations, which is considered to be at the top of the hierarchy of the calculus courses. So take Algebra, Algebra II, Geometry and Trigonometry to get your strong foundation before begining the calculus sequence.
I think is better to take precalculus first, then take calculus. When you take calculus, it is better to take it in three different semesters, first caculus1, then calculus2 and 3. If you go step by step, I think is better to appropriate the knowledge. If you have enough time to study, then do not hurry up. However, if you believe in yourself that you can do it, based on your previous knowledge, then do it.

You need to take calculus
a lot of science courses and math as well. Biology, Physics, Chemistry, Math, Calculus, Statistics, etc good luck!
No. College Algebra and Precalculus (or Trigonometry) are enough preparation to take Calculus.
Actually, business students are more likely to take bothstatistics and calculus since students are more likely to do computation. Business jobs deal with the great uses of calculus, matrix algebra, statistics and programming.
It is recommended that an economics student take calculus, linear algebra and mathematical statistics.
In high school, you should take the full series of math available to you. Algebra is critical to the daily work of a registered nurse. Geometry, probability and statistics, and calculus are also helpful.
It depends on what college you attend. Most universities in Missouri require you to take Calculus I in order to become an accountant.

It depends on which type of scientist and the specific field. Thus, one should consider higher level math courses, to include calculus and statistics.
