[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here: Kid appears to have psyched themselves out of AP C.  (Mix of - counselor said to group can’t do without prior physics/no; kid looked at FRQs for C they look really hard; etc).  I guess that is fine, still not clear to me what right choice would be.  Kid is very strong in math/science but I don’t think will go engineering/physics, so doesn’t seem to matter?  (Just trying to avoid a boring/not very challenging physics class ….that had been a problem with both 9th bio and 10th chem, after a good amount of science exposure in middle school at basis, both these required courses in 9th/10th DCPS were a bit boring/not challenging at all).[/quote]

Of course the questions are hard before he even takes the class!

Physics 1 is terrible because without math all the Q&A are just magic woo formulas where you have to regurgitate buzzwords based on a memorizing a standard set of questions. Professional physicists can't understand the fake physics that AP Physics 1 demands.
