<p>I got a 2 on my AP Physics B test bc I came in with no knowledge of physics and my teacher didn’t know much English
Do you think it’s a good idea to take Physics C now that I have some background about physics? Is it mainly the same course?</p>
<p>Physics C takes two of the subjects covered briefly (I assume–I haven’t actually taken Physics B) in Physics B, mechanics and electricity and magnetism, and covers them in-depth, with a lot of calculus and some proofs. Physics C focuses more on math than Physics B, so if you’re comfortable with calculus you might enjoy it.</p>
<p>I took Physics C at the same time as Calc BC, with no experience in physics at all, and got a 5 on mechanics and a 4 on electricity and magnetism–you might be okay, especially if your teacher’s problem with English was the big problem.</p>
