<p>So I'm a freshman right now, and I'm only going to be in Geometry next year. But, I'm doubling up on sciences (biology and chemistry) to see if I can knock out my core classes earlier, and I was wondering if I can take AP Physics 1 and 2 next year. At first I was thinking about skipping a science to take AP Computer Science A next year, but then I found about the revamp on AP Physics and making the schedule algebra based instead. If I take Geometry and AP Physics 1 & 2 next year will it work out or will it be still too hard? Thanks.</p>
<p>bump bump bump</p>
<p>Why not double up on math so you can take AP calc and AP physics C your senior year? Also I’d assume one can’t take both AP Physics 1 & 2 during the same year unless one is offered each semester.</p>
<p>@Patton370 I thought AP Physics 1 & 2 was a one year class, so yeah. But I think I’ll do AP physics 1 Sophomore then AP Phyiscs 2 Junior Then AP physics C Senior Year (with AP Calc BC). Do you think that’ll work?</p>
<p>just let me warn you: i thought physics 1 honors was gonna be super easy and i almost wanted to skip ahead to ap physics b</p>
<p>but then i took the class, and no. thank the heavens i did not skip right to ap.</p>
<p>i don’t know you, but really physics is NO cake walk. i think a high school level physics class is important before taking ap physics.</p>
<p>So you’re taking Algebra 1 right now? I’m struggling with AP Physics and I’ve taken all the math classes required to fully understand the material. I can’t imagine taking it while only having basic algebra under my belt.</p>
<p>

<p>That’s what I thought. Apparently my high school offers either on-level or AP (no honors) Physics B/C in junior year/senior year respectively. Basically you have to do AP if you’re an honors science student.</p>
<p>lol i would still just take regular physics. there’s a math requirement for both regular and honors physics, at my school, so you can’t be an idiot in physics, either way. i think both regular and honors are trig based, so fairly difficult.</p>
<p>but omg rotational dynamics!!! death of me</p>
<p>what is torque i don’t even know but i took a test on it</p>
<p>Wait, I though AP Physics B is being split into two classes next year. Also is physics B a requirement to take physics C? Also I’m in physics B right now, and its my first physics class I’ve eve been in. Its not that bad, granted the class averaged a 65 on the test last week.</p>
