<p>I want to take the AP Physics C: Mech and E+M exams this May, would 4 months be enough time study?
I aiming for a five on both and I only have prior knowledge in Mechanics(algebra/trig-based)
I currently have Barron's prep book and University Physics by Young and Freedman Amazon.com:</a> University Physics with Modern Physics with MasteringPhysics (12th Edition) (9780805321876): Hugh D. Young, Roger A. Freedman: Books</p>
<p>Thanks in advance!</p>
<p>I’m exactly like you! I have exactly the same books as you! </p>
<p>Anyway, I think it’s enough time.</p>
<p>you guys are too optimistic. It’s not 4 months. It’s more like 3 months and 1/2 since two weeks pass since New Year’s.</p>
<p>Perhaps. Then again I’m a person who spends her free time reading physics books and dreaming of physics equations.</p>
<p>-_- physics equations are fun to do, but the annoying part is the units. N - (kg X m)/s^2, V-J/C, A - C/s. So, many names for a specific units. That’s why I like chemistry better.</p>
<p>I don’t even understand why many people at my school say chemistry is harder than physics.</p>
<p>For physics, you really have to memorize very little; if you can do mathematical reasoning well, that alone will get you through lots of it. AP chemistry just absolutely requires you to memorize things; no way are you going to be able to learn them at a level where you can derive things you don’t remember.</p>
<p>I hope its enough time, i’m currently on ch.5 of the barrons prep (work, energy, and power)</p>

<p>I think you should be okay, but do keep in mind that E&M is not easy.</p>
