My son is a junior in high school. His school does not teach AP courses, but he can take AP tests at a nearby school. We're trying to determine what would be best for him to take in terms of the Physics and Calculus tests.
By the end of his senior year, he will have had two years of physics and two years of calculus -- one year as a junior and one year as a senior. Roughly the physics this year is algebra-based and next year calculus-based. And roughly the calculus this year is AB and next year BC.
Given that, which tests should he take? Should he take Physics 1/2 and Calculus AB this year, and then Physics C and Calculus BC next year? Or skip 1/2 and AB this year and just do C and BC next year? Or something different for Physics and Calculus?
This isn't a question related to the courses at his school (he will likely have to do some self study to complement that), more which tests it makes sense to take.
Thanks.
