The subject matter in Physics Honors is very similar to that of General Physics; however, more emphasis is placed on related mathematical principles and applications of modern physical concepts and theories. A firm understanding of pre-calculus concepts and strong problem solving skills are essential for success in this course. Students should be capable of analyzing data in order to draw sound scientific conclusions and will be expected to take responsibility for independent learning. With the experience provided in this course, the student should be well prepared for college level physics or physical science classes.
