High School Physics: What to Expect

[Fizex]

High school AP physics classes are a quiet post-lunch nap time where knowledge goes to die and the teacher gives easy A's.

Well that's how it was for me anyway...

Then obviously your teacher doesn't know how to teach and you'll probably end up being unprepared for university.

Paradoxically, it did prepare me for university as I put the burden of learning the material, reading the textbook, solving numerous problems that weren't required, and prepping for tests in my own hands. With this approach I didn't need to depend on my professor to be an excellent lecturer once I got to college.

Then all power to you.

I made this point to tell the OP a class is what you make of it and there is no point in telling him what it's like, sorry if I addressed it wrong. It could be basic memorization or analytic thinking.
