How hard is AP Physics B?

<p>So, how is it?</p>

<p>It’s not bad - it’s a lot of memorizing and using different formulas. Application of formulas from different chapters into one challenging word problem is probably the hardest, but as long as you do practice problems it’s not so bad. Not as much pure memorization as AP Chem or Bio.</p>

<p>^ AP Chem is not memorization… it’s all stoichiometry and crap like that.</p>

<p>AP Physics B has no calculus, I believe. Physics C does. Therefore the math isn’t that hard and the class isn’t that hard. It’s the math that makes science classes hell.</p>

<p>Physics B isn’t that hard–I believe not. The concepts are more abstract than Chemistry, so I have a hard time applying the concepts, but the math is easy. Just plug in this number and that.</p>

<p>^ IMO the math in Physics is a LOT harder than the “math” we did in AP Chem.</p>
