yes. as the name implies, pre-calculus is essential in Calculus. Much of the trigonometry and the ideas will carry into the carious Calculus classes.
Im still taking Integral Calculus now, but for me, if you dont know Differential Calculus you will not know Integral Calculus, because Integral Calculus need Differential. So, as an answer to that question, ITS FAIR
First, you need to learn how to do calculus. This can be accomplished through either taking a calculus class or figuring it out on your own. Next, you apply what you have learned to the problem, eventually arriving at the answer.
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.
Yes, most premed students do take 3 semesters of calculus in college.
