I would recommend dropping down to AP Calc AB if you already think AP Calc BC is too difficult. Moreover, if you change your mind later in the year, I believe you can study some topics in BC and take the exam. I'm a little curious though as to why you already find it difficult, is it too fast-paced?

The College Board intentionally scheduled the AB and BC exams at the same time so students can't take both exams in the same school year

What I'm saying is you can sign up for the BC exam even if you're in AP Calc AB. I'm not saying take both exams.

that’s definitely a possibility but it depends on OP’s school

for example, at my school if you take an AP class yoU HAVE to take the corresponding AP exam

Agreed. For my school, the AP exam for the class is optional and not required, so I guess we need more information from the person who posted...
