[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What's weird is that [b]AP Bio and AP Chem are 2 semester college courses[/b]. But students take HS Bio and Chem first AP Physics C is split into half (Mechanics , E&M), and mechanics is usually a full year course, because students didn't take a high school physics class. So basically it was a high school year and and college semester , in one intensive year. Physics 1/B used to be rare but now is more common. It's the science equivalent of the new AP Precalc - AP for non majors. So if you take Physics 1, and then Physics C, makes a lot more sense to take mechanics and e&m together in one year (one semester each) to complete two college semesters, similar to the Bio and Chem sequences. [/quote] I'm not sure I understand you. AP Chem is equal to ONE semester of college chemistry. AP Bio is also equivalent to ONE semester of college biology. AP Physics C - mech is like one semester of college Physics. [/quote]
