<p>Hello everyone, I have some interesting things to say. I am currently taking a class in my high school Physics C: Mecanics. This class will last the entire second semester (in addition to the first) much to my dissapointment. When I get to college, will I be at a disadvantage because I had never covered electricity and magnetism in high school? Also, since there is no Physics B course at my school, I was curious if this course would have been more appropriate for me because I want to be a doctor</p>
<p>Physics is irrelevant and useless unless you want to become an engineer of some sort. So nope, you won't be at a disadvantage. I'm taking regular physics and struggling. I completely regret that decision because I want to be an investment banker, and science will be rendered completely irrelevant to my life once I survive this physics class.</p>
<p>Not quite true actually: if you want to be a doctor you need to take a year of physics as it WILL be on your MCATs. Plus physics in general isn't actually about the material as much as the thinking needed to solve problems, and there's no way that would be a detriment.
And I don't think not learning E&M will be a detriment as a lot of people are in the same boat, trust me. :)

Time for a joke! Once in the middle of a lecture a premed student raised his hand. "Professor!" he said in an impatient tone, "what's the point of learning all this?"
"It saves lives," he said with a gruff tone and continued writing on the board. The student remained undaunted.
"But Professor!" he called out, "how does it save lives?"
The prof responded immediately: "it keeps people like you out of medical school!"</p>
<p>Self-study it !</p>
<p>LOL nice joke Stargirl hahahahahaha</p>
