<p>If i got a 3 on physics b but a 4 on physics c, will i get credit?</p>
<p>The BC physics department does not accept any type of AP credit.</p>
<p>Your score of 3 won’t get you anything for Physics B, but your 4 will get you AP credit for Physics C. How much credit will depend on which Physics C exam(s) you took. If you take both the E&M and Mechanics exams, you will get AP credit for 2 natural science core classes, which fulfills your natural science requirement. If you only took one of them, you will get AP credit for one natural science core and will still have to take a one-semester science class to fulfill the requirement.</p>
<p>And AP credit is not really “credit” in the sense of actually counting as a class on your transcript (unless you have enough AP credit to be granted Advanced Standing). It just means that you can waive the core requirement and take other classes that you want instead.</p>
<p>worried_mom you are like a course encyclopedia for BC…</p>
<p>Only because my son was asking the same questions last year – been there, done that, got the T-shirt, lol!</p>
<p>Glad I can help.</p>
<p>Sorry I misunderstood your question. Your AP credit will get you out of the core requirement. However, if you plan on being a physics major or your major requires physics classes, you’re going to have to start in introductory physics no matter what your AP score was.</p>
