My school offers this course to those with a certain grade in Honors Chem OR Honors Physics.
I’m in Honors Chem right now and will have Calculus next year, how hard will AP Physics C be if i don’t take honors physics?
AP Physics C is not hard at all, especially if you take AP Calc with it. Physics is just applied Calc. Just make sure you study, maybe look over physics material over the summer. In my case, I took physics honors and this year I am taking AP Physics C, and in my opinion they are practically the same. I am actually getting better grades in that class this year. That being said, it also depends on if you’re a math kind of guy and if you’re okay with a decent workload. Could also depend on your school. Hope this helps.
Mechanics is considered a first year physics course, along with AP Physics 1, so it shouldn’t be too hoard without honors physics (it would help a lot, though).
