[quote=Anonymous]My DC took Honors Physics last year as a junior and AP Phys 1 this year as a senior. He has been accepted to several colleges for a STEM major. We had debated taking Physics C, but based on conversations with Math and Sci heads at the HS, he decided to take Phys 1 because he was not going to be in AP Calc BC this year. The one thing I know is that Phys 1 labs are harder than Honors Physics. Your child can elect to do Hon Physics and then AP 1 next year. I would encourage you to talk to the math & sci department heads at the school. Neither one really wanted to say "Do this" or "Do that" to us, but it seemed clear that the strongest math experience was expected for Phys C. Coming off a year of distance learning, the math dept head said that "every math weakness will be exploited in AP Calculus and AP Physics 1 or C next year." [/quote]
