Designed by the College Board to parallel college-level physics courses that serve as a partial foundation for science or engineering majors, AP Physics C courses primarily focus on 1) mechanics and 2) electricity and magnetism, with approximately equal emphasis on these two areas. AP Physics C courses are more intensive and analytical than AP Physics B courses and require the use of calculus to solve the problems posed.
Students will need to obtain an electronic version of the textbook for the class (approximately $60).
Students must remain enrolled for the entire school year to receive AP credit and the corresponding weighted grade.
