Is A-level Physics in England similar to HSC Physics (bar social stuff)?

Yeah Probably. However the Americans seem far behind compared to us in maths. Our 2-unit is there 4-unit or something like that.

I think that is the case.........correct me if I am wrong.

I don't think that's true, very exaggerated. Math in America has their levels just like we do, ie AP Calculus it has has division AB and BC stuff that is included is Conic Sections, Taylor series etc. They're not gonna be behind but they don't do exact same topics as us.

Yes he doesnt like the shitty rote learning component of physics lol. Neither do I, but hey I was stupid and didnt choose polish continuers when I could have eaaasily gotten band 6 in that (mother tongue) and instead opted for two sciences. Fuck my stupidity in subject selection -_-

But anyway got 100 percent in maths ext 2 test today. Am *woot woot* happeh :D

2nd place was 85 percent, big gap. Mmmmhm.

Yep :p

I do more Physics in the MX2 and MX1 courses, plus I did horrible in a recent task.
I still have 12 units though lol
4U English, 4U maths, chem and?

And dropping is a nice feeling, I know you were contemplating dropping physics so having the paperwork done and dusted must feel good.
