Short answer: They're similar, but Calculus AB covers a bit more (and goes more in-depth) than Calculus 1.
Long answer:
The AP Calculus AB test covers differentiation (taking derivatives) and early integration (taking antiderivatives), including the concept/applications of an integral and integration by substitution. In college, Calculus 1 covers mostly differentiation and Calculus 2 covers additional strategies for integration and series.
I like to think of it like this:
A = Differentiation
B = Integration
C = Series
So Calculus AB covers differentiation and integration and Calculus BC covers integration and series.
College is more like:
Calc 1 = A
Calc 2 = B&C
Of course, this depends on how much you cover in high school and college.

Calculus AB is a Calculus course taught in high schools based on an AP curriculum. The class is supposed to ultimately prepare a student to take the AP Calculus AB exam in May. While the specifics might vary from school to school, the core of the curriculum are limit definitions, differentiations, integrations, and applications of all of the above.
(a/b)'= (ba'-ab')/(b²)
Study every single thing in math
In High School, BC Calculus is an accelerated course in Calculus. It includes a full-year of the college course, while AB includes only half a year's worth. BC tends to move at a much faster pace and covers much more material than AB.
AP Calculus AB is a post-secondary course that is also offered in many high schools. Students that score high on the AP exam may not have to take certain college math courses.
Never heard of Chandler - but Chyten is amazing!
If 2 segments have the same length they are known as 'congruent segments' IE: segment AB=segment AC (or AB=AC) then AB @ AC (or AB is congruent to AC)
Both Liebnez and Newton developed calculus at about the same time and there was a row between them over who developed calculus first.
Depending on your school they will go, Applied Geometry (D average or lower), Geometry ( C and above), Problem Solving A (D in geometry), Algebra 2 (C or better in Geometry), Problem solving B (D or lower in Algebra 2), Calculus AB (C or better in Algebra 2) and Calculus BC (requires AB)
yes it is
