[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If he really wants to study physics he shouldn’t take AP physics 1. It a conceptual / not much math class while the higher AP physics classes use calculus. If he really wants to study physics he should self study in 10th and in 11th after taking calculus bc take AP physics C.

He should self study calculus and take Multivariable Calc. Self study Spanish and take AP Spanish. Self study programming and take AP CS A.
Self study bassoon and join Honors Orchestra.

Self study everything, don't bother with classes. [/quote]

This is what the college board lists for prerequisite:
Students should have taken or be concurrently taking calculus.

You don’t have to have taken Physics 1 or 2. Many concepts are so much easier to learn if you know calculus. Physics 1 is not math based so that class is more like conceptual physics. So by self-study for AP physics C , it was meant watch some YouTube physics videos so you have done background knowledge. Don’t waste a year if a science class taking Physics 1[/quote]
