[quote=Anonymous]I don't know if every AP Physics 1 class is like this, but in my child's class last year the teacher started right off the bat using AP questions, which, as a PP said, were convoluted. Very few of the students, primarily 11th and 12th graders, had has any Physics before. Class averages for tests were in the 40 %s. Unlike our experience in AP social studies classes, the physics teacher did not walk kids through how to attack an AP MC question or FRQ - it was sink or swim. Corrections were available so you could bring test grades up by 25%. Made for a very tough class.[/quote]
