IB Physics SL AP Equivalent?

Test Preparation AP Sciences
1

Hey everyone,

My school is an IB school with only about 3 AP classes. Im thinking of doing an independent AP test in physics for a better chance at college credit since most colleges only accept HL credits and I will be taking SL Physics next year. (There is no HL offered)

Out of the 4 AP physics exams, which one is closest to/equivalent to the IB Physics SL exam?

2

Probably closest to physics 1 and 2, since the IB physics is not calculus-based.

Be aware that not all colleges will accept AP or IB scores for physics subject credit or advanced placement.
