<p>Never read the thread before, only OP’s first post - now I just read through it.</p>
<p>The ability to take the theory and skills you’ve learned in physics, chem and math and apply them to non-standard conditions<a href=“something%20you’ve%20never%20seen%20before”>/u</a> to solve a problem.</p>
<p>This is a good description. AP Chem, once you learn the problems, you essentially know all the problems. In engineering, you learn the concepts - not the problems - because each problem is different & requires a different approach, and AP Physics C is the closest you can get to this type of problem-solving.</p>
