Before I knew it, my baseball coach became my AP Physics teacher. Without sugar-coating the difficulty of the course, Doc emphasized the work that would need to be done. Although a little tough now, I know the insane scenarios that he explained to us on the first day are soon to come. Homework is not as much as expected since the concepts of some nights' homework are more easily grasped than others. As the year goes along, I am looking forward to learning about Physics in the lab by discovering in order to understand. I am willing to challenge myself in a hopefully uphill year.
Grading policies have been very fair so far. Tests and quizzes, however, seem to sometimes be do or die since the answer to one problem is used in the next problem and so forth. I have been lucky enough to "do" so far, but whose to say that I won't "die?"
The truth about Physics is that it is more difficult because of the time needed for other subjects. So here is my quick thought for Physics and school as a whole. Summer is long gone.
