Some schools seem to teach calculus a bit differently. Some schools allow you to go straight to BC without taking AB since the beginning portion of calculus is taught in Pre-Calc for some.

If you really feel confident in taking BC, I suggest go for it. I took it without taking AB and I didn't find it too difficult, but that's mainly due to my obsession over mathematics. Out of all of the exams, people seem to find AP Calc BC the easiest one to score a 5. Though, if you feel uncertain, go with AB and feel comfortable with the material first, then take BC.
