AP Chem and Physics

<p>I am currently taking AP Chem and honors physics. Am I going to have a problem since I did not take physics earlier. How much physics, if any, am I required to know in order to do well in the AP Chem class?? We're starting to touch on some physics concepts and I'm starting to think that maybe I should have waited until AFTER I took physics to take AP Chem?????</p>

<p>Not much, just that electromagnetic waves stuff</p>

<p>we're doing the exact same thing (me and you....AP chem, hon. phys). I haven't had any problems so far. And as i recall, physics is not a prerequisite for AP chemitry. You'll be fine.</p>

<p>Um, relax. You don't need any physics knowledge to do well in AP chem.</p>

<p>yeah you really don't need to know any physics to do well in AP Chemisitry, although it might help a little bit on one or two of the chapters but thats about it..</p>

<p>I took physics H and Chem AP both last year and I only remember a period of like 1-2 weeks that had the same info (or info we had already learned in the other)...and it was real simple stuff</p>

<p>i'm just like you. in my school, you have to take chem first before taking physics so that obviously tells something about the two courses</p>

<p>You don't need Physics prior to taking AP Chem. It would help though.</p>

<p>I did the same senior year. No impact.</p>

<p>i'm taking AP Chem and PhysicsB next yr, is it hard to balance the two time-wise and stuff?</p>

<p>Depends on your school. Most likely though, it would be hard.</p>

<p>well at least i won't be taking them for AP tests, i don't think
it's just i wanna go into the premed route in college, so i want a good foundation
but at my school taking multiple AP sciences isn't too rare, like one of my friends is taking AP chem, physicsB, and bio lol</p>
