Is Honors Physics enough for SAT Physics?

AP exams are meant to be taken after two years of classes in a subject. SAT subject tests, however, are meant to be taken after one year. This means they could be less in depth then an AP exam. However, if you want to do well on the subject test, buy a review book and study it. One year could be enough, so I would say go for it - colleges don’t have to see your score if it isn’t good.
My school doesn’t offer any AP classes, but the honors ones are quite rigorous. I took honors biology, and with some self study for the AP exam, I got a 770 on the bio sat subject test. It’s not physics, but you can do well on the subject test without taking an AP.
