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
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.
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.
Calculus is much harder than statistics, and don't really have anything in common other than algebraic process. Calculus is the study of rates, while statistics is probability.
Yes, most premed students do take 3 semesters of calculus in college.
It depends on your degree. If it is required by your degree, often an opportunity is provided to take it at the college. Math college classes proceed at a faster pace, so don't procrastinate if you are interested in math oriented degree.
Calculus or AP Calculus
Algebra and calculus.
At a minimum, I recommend AP Calculus.
Most importantly take economics and as many pre- calculus and calculus classes., If your HS offers any budget planning or budget financing classes., those are a + as well.,
6th graders do not usually study calculus. They usually take arithmetic or other basic math classes.

Yes, engineers don't only use calculus but they use it for almost anything. In your first year of engineering school you will take 2 calculus classes as well as use calculus principles in all your other classes. They use it to do the craziest things. In summary... YES! YES! YES!
You must take honor classes in all your subjects to qualify in UCLA. If you would like to challenge yourself, you can take AP classes in your senior years. I took total of 12 AP classes and qualified for UCLA.
In the United States, to apply to vet school you must have completed at least Calculus I (and sometimes Calculus II) in undergraduate college. You also need good math skills to succeed in the various chemistry and physics classes you must take prior to applying to vet school.
No. College Algebra and Precalculus (or Trigonometry) are enough preparation to take Calculus.
In a typical public school, trigonometry. Accelerated classes will take calculus.
In high school you should focus on science and math classes, particularly biology, chemistry, physics, algebra II, pre-calculus and calculus.
