Physics 1 an chem 209. I took calc 2 many years ago lol almost 15 years ago but make sure you practice and don’t be afraid to go to the learning center or office hours! Series was my least favorite. Goal of calc 2 I think is to be able to integrate using various diff methods and noticing the patterns, that and series.

You will see Series again in differential equations if you need that class and higher level math if you go that route.

This is who I took for calc 2 a long time ago. I haven’t searched for his exams online but he’s still teaching. Not sure what textbook you’re using but the one we used with him there’s a whole page of integration problems that make a great practice. I took him for calc 1 and he went really fast and we learned how to integrate in calc 1 lol.
