[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Do not take the AP Physics without the Alg 2. AP Physics 1 is one of the lowest passed exams. You can search this forum for many conversations about Physics.[/quote] +1 I’ve taught 10th graders in AP Physics 1 who were talking Algebra 2 concurrently. Smart kids, but they struggled all year, earning Cs and 2s on the exam. It’s not simple plug and chug algebra problems. It’s abstract reasoning across multiple concepts with formula manipulation. My daughter is currently an 8th grader enrolled in 8th-grade level Physics and algebra 1. She is an extremely smart kid and plans on taking geometry and AP physics 1 next year. I am worried for her since she is also taking all honors and very time-demanding sports all year, but there isn;t another option for her other than AP physics, according to her teacher. How should I prepare her? [/quote] What is 8th grade physics?[/quote] Only available at WPMS.[/quote]
