Hey guys, I just came back from taking Math IIC and Physics. I was originally signed up for Chem instead of Physics, considering that I took Honors Chem this year, but I’ve been hearing that the subject test has a lot of AP material.

Worried I wouldn’t do so well on Chem, I decided last week that I would take Physics instead of Chem, as I have had a keen interest in Physics ever since I took a summer class after freshman year. After studying 2-3 hours a day for the past week, taking practice tests and reviewing concepts, I felt I did pretty well. However, I haven’t ever taken a class in Physics at my high school, and that summer class does not show up in my transcript.

My question is, would colleges see this and become suspicious? How would I go about indicating my interest and that I self-studied for the Physics subject test?
