<p>I did honors physics freshman year and did ok in it (A-). Then I did no physics my sophomore and junior years and then did Physics C (M & E/M) my senior year. It was pretty miserable. I’m too cheap to pay for my AP scores though. </p>
<p>As far as calculus goes, my teacher did a lot of calculus derivations which you don’t need to know, so if you want to understand those, calc is helpful. But as far as the test goes, you don’t need it too much.</p>
