<p>Hello, I'm signed up for Math II and US History for this Saturday, so I think it's a little late to add another, but I'm a little worried. So, I'm planning on being a physics major, but I won't have any official physics AP classes on my transcript when I apply. I took an honors physics class last year which covered kinematics up to circuits in relatively basic terms, but when physics B split into two courses, my school really messed up and now offers both AP Physics I and Honors physics (which is the same exact curriculum). The physics teacher left as well, and a brand new teacher who majored in statistics is now teaching the AP Physics I class. I was enrolled in it for about a week until I couldn't stand the teacher (he explained that most of what we are going to learn is going to be on our own since he didn't know much physics). I switched out into AP Biology with the intention of self-studying Physics C: Mech. Consequently, I didn't sign up for the SAT II physics because I thought that I wouldn't have the material covered whatsoever. Should I still take it in November? Could I self study it with my current knowledge? I'm applying ED to Columbia and that is the last date I could take it. Will not taking it hurt my chances for admission?</p>
<p>Bump–anyone?</p>
<p>Bump, I’d really love some advice for this.</p>
<p>The Physics SAT Subject test consists of both Mechanics and E&M, which could be separate courses at high schools. It’s not like the Biology test, which allows you to pick between Molecular and Ecology. If you touched upon electrical fields and magnetic stuff, just study them some more and you should be fine.</p>
<p>You can take it and always chose not to send the scores if they suck. No ?</p>
