Vector Calculus (Calculus 3) in High School

Many very motivated and eager high school students will finish Calculus AB (Calculus I) and Calculus BC (Calculus II) during their junior or senior year of high school.

If you finish these AP Calculus courses during your senior year, then one option to get ahead with your academic plan is to complete the next course - Calculus 3 (Calculus III) - Multivariable Calculus - during the summer before you start your new undergraduate university. Earning real collegiate academic credits for Multivariable Calculus and then transferring those credits to your new undergraduate college/university is an excellent way to start your new school with some advanced mathematics credits under your belt.

Some very advanced students may finish Calculus I (AB) and Calculus II (BC) during their junior year of high school. For these students, enrolling in multivariable calculus, honors multivariable calculus, honors vector analysis, honors calculus 4, honors calculus IV, and perhaps Differential Equations and Linear Algebra, via Distance Calculus @ Roger Williams University is an excellent way to FINISH your lower division mathematics courses even before you step foot onto your new college/university campus the following Fall semester!

Here is a video about our Multivariable Calculus course via Distance Calculus @ Roger Williams University:

Calculus 3 Course Info






Multivariable Calculus & High School






After AP Calculus for High School Students



Calculus 3 course can best be described as a "the first semester course of Differential and Integral Calculus to functions of many variables".

This course has many names, all being equivalent:
  • Calculus 3
  • Calculus 4
  • Calculus III
  • Calculus IV
  • Vector Calculus
  • Calculus of Many Variables
  • Calculus of Several Variables
At Distance Calculus, we call our "Calculus 3" course as Multivariable Calculus - DMAT 355 - 4 credits.

Review: Course was good and fast. I don't like math so I can't say it was fun or anything. Grader was very nice. Software was ok.

Courses Completed: Probability Theory
Review: A fantastic course! I was able to complete it in about half a year (with a few gaps) alongside other coursework I was completing. There are no deadlines except the one-year mark after registering, so you work at your own rate and schedule. Probability Theory is required for me to apply to Master's programs in Statistics, so I was glad when I found Distance Calculus. While the course was slightly less difficult than I originally expected, there were parts that definitely slowed me down and made me think. (Also, although calculus is not everywhere in the course, it is everywhere in normal and exponential variables and beyond, so make sure to review derivatives and integrals (single and double)!) I used Mathematica for my software, and it helped speed along calculations and proved to be the perfect stage and tool for this material. I think visual learners will absolutely revel in how the material is presented in this course. (I know I did!) As there is plenty of writing and calculation to do, you have many opportunities to develop and strengthen your voice as a mathematician. The modern format of 80% electronic notebook work and 20% handwritten work is an excellent mixture for studying probability theory and grasping its core ideas. Dr. Curtis is clear in his answers to any questions and concerns you may have and is highly responsive to email and chat, and to responses you leave in your notebooks. He truly wants to help you and to see you succeed, and he is always on your side. I highly recommend Probability Theory with Distance Calculus!

Courses Completed: Calculus I, Calculus II
Review: I needed to brush up on my high school calculus and finally take Calc II before starting a graduate program that needed them as prereqs. This was perfect choice to fit in that summer. Got done at fast pace that I wanted and needed. Also had added bonus of one on one feedback and help when needed. Video lessons were better than many on campus instructors in large lecture settings. Recommend for anyone needing to satisfy prereqs at home institution.
