HankCT:

On your last question, she has been in the honors science track (H bio, H chem, etc) and having done well in those, she has the option to take AP physics if she wants to. She has not taken normal physics (although that would seem odd to take a year of physics and then another year of AP physics?).

It depends upon **which ** AP Physics we’re talking about. I really wish people would specify.

AP Physics.1 after intl physics is pointless IMO. Intro physics, though is a common prerequisite for AP Physics C.

If the options are AP Physics 1 with lower level English and history courses vs regular or honors physics with higher level English and history, I would opt for the latter. While it may be useful to speak with the GC, schedule conflicts frequently happen - perhaps more so this year.
