Uh, well I remember when I took it, we covered some trigonometry stuff (like some useful relationships between sine, cosine, tangent), some polar and parametric equations, studied functions (their holes, asymptotes, end behavior, domain and range etc.) briefly discussed limits, and worked with complex numbers.

It was pretty easy and I didn't pay a whole lot of attention, so I don't remember exactly, but that's basically what we did. Of course it might be different.

It's been a while, but I remember "precalc" being "everything you don't know about algebra/trig/limits" plus "as much calculus as we can cover."

thanks but does anyone have a full syllabus? any teachers or people taking the class now? its honors, not regular.

Click on "lessons" for a full list. I would expect that someone preparing to go into calculus would have at minimum exposure to most of those items.
