[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes, AP Physics 1 is like AP Pre Calc, the "lite" version and having a ton of APs including these doesn't necessarily impress with out the follow up rigorous AP Calc BC and AP Physics C. [b]This is what many parents not understanding why their kid didn't get into Ivy, these mediocre APs don't count. [/b][/quote] Or even UVA. Rigor matters. AP physics 1 is not rigorous. Almost half of our private school takes it, 10 or 11th. Fewer than 1/3 of them take AP physics C the following year, and even fewer also get in another AP sci plus every other "most difficult" course across subjects. [/quote]
