<p>My roommate tells me that just plain Physics is harder than Physics with Calc I.</p>

<p>Is this true?</p>

<p>Physics is non-calc based and 4 credits and Phys w/ Calc I is 3 credits and w/ calc.</p>

<p>So, opinions? </p>

<p>Thanks</p>

<p>Well, calculus to me would make the physics easier. Calculus was pretty much invented for physics.</p>

<p>Calculus enables one to understand physics more efficiently/effectively, so I would presume it would easier.</p>

<p>It depends on whether you’re good at math. If so, then the calculus-based courses will be easier. If not, then you’d be better off taking the non-calculus series.</p>

<p>The number of credits is irrelevant.</p>
