How hard is it to self study physics?

If you like it, go for it ^^ I had 6 weeks of Intro Physics over the summer (really really basic… never learned Power, Torque, absolutely no magnetism or modern physics, a bunch of electricity, etc etc)…

Then, the night before the SAT (November), I realized that not only had I not learned a lot of the material, but I also forgot a LOT of the stuff I did learn. I was like, “Hm… I’m probably screwed,” so I picked up a random old prep book at a used book store and looked up Physics on Sparknotes and read them for a few hours. I scored 760 ^^ If you like the subject, you’re bound to learn quickly.
