<p>Which would you choose? Which one is a good combination?</p>
<p>I'm going to take two AP science classes next year, and it's really up in the air. I have no problem with taking any of those classes, so what do you think would look the best/most impressive junior year? I'll still take the leftover senior year.</p>
<p>Physics B Or C?</p>
<p>Physics B </p>
<p>(10 char)</p>
<p>In my personal opinion, Physics B is harder than C. But that may be because I suffered enough through B and C became easier with B background.
I haven't taken AP Biology yet. I can't really compare. I took AP Chem and AP Physics C independent study this year. I think they were fairly easy. However, in retrospect, I don't think physics B and Chem would make a good combination--WAY TOO MUCH quantitative thinking (ironic, that coming from a math nerd like me).</p>
<p>Yea, I sort of thought the same. I don't really like the sound of Chem/Physics together. Just too much math for me, especially with calculus and all. :D</p>
<p>So.....either AP Bio/AP Physics or AP Bio/AP Chem.</p>
<p>AP Bio and AP Phsyics is what I'am taking next year.</p>
<p>AP Chem shouldn't be combined with Physics, just too much damn math.</p>
<p>Bio/Chem would be fine too.</p>
<p>I wanna take physics so bad! </p>
<p>So yea, I think I will take AP Bio and AP Physics. I know I'm very good at bio. I'll be going into physics blind, but hopefully I can handle it. Is it hard to get an A in AP Physics B? haha</p>
<p>wait, so AP Chem and AP Physics should NOT be combined??</p>
<p>It depends, I guess.</p>
<p>For me, AP Calc, AP Chem, and AP Physics would be too much math all at once.</p>
<p>I would take chem and bio. A friend of mine did that this year and said that it wasn't at all bad.</p>
<p>I would not recommend Physics and Bio at the same time, as the tests are one after the other. It's very strenuous, at least for me.</p>
<p>^I know what you mean. I took AP Spanish Lang and then AP Stats during the same day. Would try to avoid that as much as possible.</p>
<p>haha. i had ap euro and ap us on the same day. 160 MC's and 6 essays in 6 hours. my mind was totally blank afterwards.</p>
<p>Dang, good point MrSpam.</p>
<p>At least it's Bio FIRST. I think if physics were first, I'd be too burnt out to take any afternoon AP's on that same day.</p>
<p>I've had bad experiences with chem, and I never want to go through that again. However, I'd have a different teacher for AP Chem, so I don't know.</p>
<p>If I take AP Bio and AP Physics next year, then I'll take AP Chem senior year.</p>
<p>Biology is the easiest by far, unless you have a bad teacher. </p>
<p>Chemistry is pretty easy, again, it does depend on the teacher though.</p>
<p>Physics is probably that hardest of the 3, but some people are just really good at it, and some are really bad. </p>
<p>Just think, are you better at math, or are you better at memorizing things...</p>
<p>BTW, i took Chem/Bio this year, and it was a breeze.</p>
<p>My advice is to take Chem/Bio this year, and Physics next year. (Thats what I am doing.)</p>
<p>I'm really good at memorizing and I'm pretty good at math. I took pre-calc honors this year and got an A. I never studied (unless it was a quick review of formulas and concepts) for that class....I thought pre-calc was really easy.</p>
<p>I'm more of a trig/geometry person than an algebra person.....I heard that people who are good at geometry do good in physics and that people who are good at algebra do good in chemistry; is that true?</p>
<p>I already have some chem background, so the class wouldn't be a problem. However, I do not enjoy chemistry. It's not like I love learning the material. The labs are fun, but meh.</p>
<p>try to take things that are complimentary:
AP Hist/AP Govt AP Bio/AP Chem . . . . . . it just makes sense.</p>
<p>biio and chem</p>
<p>I took bio and chem this year. They complement each other well, so that's good. For example: people in my class would take half a minute to remember the formula for photosynthesis and respiration, but by remembering the basic form of combustion along with equation balancing skills, I am able to write the equations in 15 seconds, probably even faster if I could write as fast as I think.</p>
<p>I've already taken chem though. I'm so tired of it. lol</p>
<p>Is it really that beneficial to take chem and bio side by side?</p>
<p>I just thought I'd try something different, like physics. And if I want to major in Biology, wouldn't it be better for me to take chem in college? By the time I get into a good college, I'll probably forget all the chem I learned in high school anyway...wouldn't it be better to wait?</p>
