[quote=Anonymous]My main advice would be to only do it if your child has a solid foundation in math. There's a lot of solving systems of equations and some trig and other Alg. 1, Geometry and sometimes Alg. 2 (although the teacher could rework problems to not include that) in AP Physics I. If your child is relearning math concepts at the same time they are learning the physics it will be difficult. DC's teacher who is very good gave a breakdown of the grades in their class and it was something like a third As, and a third Cs/Ds which is unusual in MCPS classes that usually have grade inflation.[/quote]
