[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kid goes to a STEM magnet and wants to major in CS. Only has room in schedule next year (senior year) to take either AP Chem or AP Physics C (AP Physics 1&2 is not offered). Likes both subjects equally. Which class would be more helpful at college as a CS major where there may be general “engineering school” requirements that include Chemistry and calculus based Physics? [/quote] AP Physics C. If you are talking about TJ, they cover both mechanics and E&M and there are 2 AP exams. If the score a 5 in each, that would allow them to skip 2 courses in college and go straight to core courses. AP Chem will only count for one college level course. Engineering schools also prefer to see AP Physics C vs. AP Chem.[/quote]
