physics 7a with no prior physics exp?

<p>soooo anyway......</p>

<p>is Physics 7a considered Calculus based physics? I have started studying the giancoli book, and I've gotten to chapter 5 and so far I haven't seen much calculus. How much should I brush up on Calc?</p>

<p>Be comfortable with derivatives, integrals, and differential equations. Brush up on your trig too. That's about it as far as I've seen.</p>

Is there anyway of taking Physics 7A first sem without completing Math 1A? (I'm intel so we don't have APs and the like)

<p>Bump! Same system here!</p>

<p>i don't think they enforce enforce prereqs and coreqs for ph 7a. if you know the math, it shouldn't be a problem.</p>

<p>Apparently with my counselor it is.. She just isn't allowing me.. But I still want to take Physics 7A .. Any advice on what I could do?</p>

<p>you could try just signing up on tele-bears without couneslor approval.</p>

<p>You counselor cannot prevent you from signing up for a class. Just do whatever you want.</p>
