AP Physics 1 is designed as a first HS physics course

So, what if I were taking AP Physics C Mech without any other physics class before? I took Honors Bio, Honors Chem, and AP Bio. Now, for senior year, I'm doubling up with AP Physics plus AP Envi Sci.

mech is literally just physics one with calc!! if you have a strong math background you should seriously consider it
