In Europe, [calculus] is a requirement for graduation in most high schools.

That's hard for me to believe. You mean if you ask a bus driver why the bus jerks when it stops, she'll remind you about the third derivative of displacement with respect to time? Or if you ask a store clerk how to integrate by parts, he'll tear off a scrap of paper and scratch on it something about u dv while thinking your accent is quite flawless for a stupid American who never learned this?
