[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]AP Physics 1 is MUCH MUCH harder than Honors Physics.[/quote] No, they're not very different. Both are algebra-based courses and cover most of the same material. AP Physics C, with Mechanics and Electricity & Magnetism, is faster-paced and requires calculus, with two exams in May. It's considered one of the hardest AP courses offered by the College Board. But for a STEM-minded kid, it's not that hard. It's like AP World History or English Lit for a Humanities kid. Not that hard. [/quote] PP is someone who read a description of AP Physics 1 and now thinks they understand it. It is difficult. [/quote] Ha ha! I have an Engineering degree and tried to help my kid with some AP Physics 1 questions. They kicked my behind. Physics in some ways is much easier to do with calculus than with algebra. [/quote]
