It is for some people, and it isn't for other people.
For the people who showed up for every class, did the homework on time,
and got help for things they didn't understand, the final is a piece o'cake.
For the people who ditched classes, blew off homework, and let everything
slide, it's a total bitch that can make grown men cry.

What is Pre calculus?
its VERY VERY VERY hard math its VERY VERY VERY hard math
Why is calculus so hard especially pre calculus?
Pre-calculus is hard because it is very algebra intensive but forces you to also incorporate your geometry and trigonometry to solve complex problems. Not only this, but precalculus is designed to expose you to a few of the oddities in advanced mathmatics (holes, end behavior etc). Calculus is then even more difficult because it differs so greatly from pre-calculus. rather than definite answers and standard functions, you now move into "theoretical math," where many problems either have very complex answers or no answer at all, and very often, you are required to prove that your answers are logical using mathematical therums. however without your strong base from pre-calculus, trying to learn these new concepts would be almost completely impossible. My advice you anyone struggling in either calculus or pre-calculus would be to keep at it. study hard and practice as much as possible. Good luck!
What is after trigonometry?
Generally pre-calculus is taken after trigonometry, unless the trigonometry course was supplemented by a pre-calculus course, in which case the next course would be calculus.
What is the main difference between calculus and pre calculus?
At my high school, pre-cal mainly consists of trigonometry and advanced algebra and geometry. As the name suggests, it is very important for the preparation of entering a calculus course. In Calculus, using some, but not all, knowledge learned in pre-cal, you start to do things like solving derivatives and anti-derivatives. These help to solve instantaneous rate of change (or slope) of a curve, and the area under the curve, respectively, and much more advanced calculations. I think it is quite fun, though pretty hard sometimes. But then again I am a nerd.
Is Pre-Cal harder than Calculus?
Definitely AP Algebra (1)^2.
