Skipping classes to go to both AP Physics B and AP Calc?

<p>I'm a junior currently, and I'm taking Honors Chemistry for science and Honors Alg II/Trig for math. Given that I'll be a senior next year, I was wondering if it would be at all possible to skip Honors Physics(I've never had any physics course in the past) and take AP Physics B(our school only offers B). Similarly, would it be realistic to skip Honors Pre-Calc and take AP Calc(most likely AB)?</p>

<p>The only downside to taking one of these classes is that fact that I'll be taking four other AP classes along with it. Aside from the course load, I think it's safe to say I'm a strong math student and I can learn at a fast pace, so the whole determination and motivation factor isn't much of a problem. </p>

<p>So, to anyone who has taken these classes or has been in the same situation that I've been in, did it work out, how hard were the classes, etc. I'm slowly dying inside not knowing what I'll take next year! :/</p>

<p>I personally skipped regular physics and went to AP Physics B, but it was awful. I ended up dropping it for AP Chem.
As for AP Calc AB, it is easy in itself, but it would be really difficult without a good precalculus foundation.</p>

<p>as ^ said above</p>

<p>No prior physics experience to go into Physics B is just fine. </p>

<p>However, if your math experience stops at SOHCAHTOA trig… you could use some basic pre calc help.</p>
