Currently in Physics B course...would it be dumb to take both Phys C and not take B?

<p>Ok- so I'm currently enrolled in a Physics B course right now, and it is time to sign up for AP Exams. So I was wondering if it would be possible for me to take both physics C exams and get a 5 on both.</p>

<p>We have just finished the first semester of physics and are about to start electricity + magnetism. I have taken Calc BC last year and am currently enrolled in Multivariable Calc. I did pretty well in BC last year (5 on BC and 5 on AB Subscore) and so far, physics has been pretty easy for me.</p>

<p>I know I am capable of doing Physics C Mechanics, but since I have not even started learning electricity + magnetism, I'm not sure how hard it is...</p>

<p>Can anyone suggest if it would be okay for me to take both Physics C this year and get a 5 on both? </p>

<p>Note: I haven't started preparing for either.</p>

<p>There aren’t that many new topics in Mechanics that are too outlandish (rotational motion is probably the big change). C:Mech should be OK with B knowledge and some studying.</p>

<p>C:E&M, on the other hand, is much weirder. I would be wary of that and not try to study it unless your mind just gets physics.</p>

<p>Ok, I’ll just sign up for both Cs, and I’ll see how it turns out…</p>
