<p>Poeple got to be kidding me. I am taking AP Physics B and I swear it is not that easy. I have taken 9 AP classes (Bio, Env. Sc, Chem, WH, USH, Language, Calculus AB/BC). I have an average of 4.8 in all my AP exams I find Physics is the toughest of all. I am not even thinking of doing Physics C any more. I am seriosuly wondering how valid is people's statement about Physics C is the only recognized course for top schools or for engineering schools. That is bogus.</p>

<p>The kind of physics that engineers needs to know involves calculus. AP physics B does not involve calculus. Therefore, it is not equivalent to an introductory physics course.</p>

<p>Many students opt out of taking the credit for several of the science and math AP classes. However, you will be much better prepared to take the science classes if you have taken the AP classes; . The learning curve is not as steep if you have some prior knowledge. Physics majors need the calc-based physics as well.</p>

<p>physics b is trig based physics lol
if you intend in majoring in anything science/math related, only calculus-based physics matter.
calculus > trig
