<p>So I'm planning on doing MCB at the College of Letter's and Sciences. Is the AP Physics C worth taking? It say's on their handbook here (<a href="http://mcb.berkeley.edu/undergrad/images/stories/forms/handbook/MCBhandbook_12_13.pdf%5B/url%5D">http://mcb.berkeley.edu/undergrad/images/stories/forms/handbook/MCBhandbook_12_13.pdf</a>) that the Physics requirements can't be waived, and for Berkeley's requirements, it say's here (Office</a> of Undergraduate Advising: 7 Course Breadth) that the 7-Course Breadth Requirements can't be waived with any AP scores either. Thanks for any help!</p>
<p>Yeah, Physics C will only get you elective units, so there’s not much point taking it…but if you’ve already paid for it, you might as well take it? </p>
<p>You could also try to pass out of intro Physics by taking the finals, for which Physics C might prepare you…</p>
<p>My school lets me get a refund for all but $13 from the $89 originally paid for each test, so I’m still weighing my options. I’m pretty sure I’m screwed for E&M, but Mechanics should be 3 or above. And how does passing intro Physics with the finals work?</p>
