PHYS 2A = AP Physics B ?

<p>So I'm looking at what classes to take next, and Physics 2a seems like the first segment of my Physics AP class, with maybe another section on rotational mechanics. Would it be dangerous to consider it an easy class since I have learned some of the material? I do have some hard classes planned so I don't want to take on too much burden.</p>

<p>I didn’t take AP Physics B, but I can tell you it’s an easier version of the Mechanics section of the AP Physics C exam. I got a 4 on that AP but then got an A+ in 2A without going to class that much. But if you take it, go to the discussion and problem solving sessions; they’re extremely helpful, especially since you’ll most likely be a little rusty with Physics.</p>

<p>thanks! i sat in on a lecture to see for myself, and the first lecture at least was very simple. I guess problem sessions will be useful too.</p>
