By calculus, I mean differentiation, optimization, implicit differentiation and simple integration (nothing harder than that).

Thanks

Most start either in 12th grade or college, but there is a HUGE range. Some start as early as early high school, some earlier, at Middle School age. Like me :D

Unfortunately I took Calculus classes when I was 18 years old. It would of been nice if I took it earlier.
