Is AP really worth it?

Really the safest thing you can do is buy an AP Physics B book and flip through it over the summer. Try and learn a few concepts. The worst that could come out of it is that you’re more prepared for it during the year. If you find that there are some things you can’t do, then try to find out why. If it so happens that it’s the basis of a lot of concepts then you know what you should do.

Plus it will build your confidence for it when you take the class. The key to physics is making sure you know your stuff because a lot of other things build on the early things and reference to them a lot, especially free-response problems.
