[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes stem kids take Calc BC only, same for physics, kids jump right to AP physics C[/quote] I never heard of anyone jumping straight to AP Physics C, which is calculus-based. Even my magnet student, who took calculus as a sophomore, too algebra-based physics first. A few years ago, someone I knew got their child into MIT with Calculus AB, but the student was female, and MIT has a higher admission percentage for females. It's hard to know what colleges are looking for. [/quote] I did, but this was in the 80s. We all took only 1 Physics class as seniors. Either regular or A or C. Those of us in Calc BC all pretty much took C, but we hadn't had a previous class. But, I think this would be unusual now. And, I think doing Honors and then AP makes much more sense. I did fine but never really got what we were doing![/quote]
