Review tiers 1–10
- Checklists are parent-judged.
- Written items: verify against practice set patterns.
- Standard text: Related rates and applied rate-of-change problems Applications of derivatives: extrema, mean value theorem, and curve sketching Optimization and applied maximum/minimum problems Linear approximation and differentials
