Admission representative doesn’t really give a damn about which AP you takes, seriously. As far as I can tell, some people with only one or two SAT 2 got them into top 10 U’s in this country, without any APs.

Of course they are very very bright students.

Physics B allows you to advance your high school physics a bit, and covers more topics (note that high school physics education curriculum varies from state to state, district to district).

Physics C is calculus-based, however, and a 4, or 5 can be used to omit yourself from the calculus-based physics 1 when you enter college (some schools might not even care… check before you apply).
