[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Physics is a freshman class at my Dc’s school[/quote] That’s not ideal. Preferable you need calculus as at least a co-rec. but you can’t do real physics without a strong algebra background. Our school requires A2 as a co-rec for honors, with a very strong preference for A2 as a pre-Rex. You aren’t getting much physics with 8th grade math. [/quote] This is at big 3 private in DC. It is very common for private schools do physics in 9th. It is called “conceptual physics” and only requires algebra 1. You can do higher level, math based physics (if you are interested) in 11th or 12th. [/quote] Then when do they do bio and chem? This seems like a waste.[/quote] Chemistry in 10th & Biology in 11th. Stem type kids will double up and take AP Physics in 11th or in 12th.[/quote]
