I am curious as well.
I don't recall dealing with vectors in my 1st semester calculus..I think towards the end of 2nd semester and third semester calculus, we did...
Unless you guys are talking about using trigs to find out length of vectors and stuff......

The vectors on there are from pre-calc, your trig class.

The calculus section of the math is supposed to be limited to limits, basic derivatives and integration (including areas under the curve). These are all questions you should be able to do very quickly if you remember the equations.

Vectors come from pre-calc and trig, not calculus. Vector calculus takes too long. If you're trying to do calculus on vectors, you're doing it wrong on the exam.
