There is to kinds of Calculus 1 at MIT - 18.01 and 18.014 that is more rigorous and based on Apostol's book. I want to know what kind usually physics major students prefer.

I believe that most physics majors take 18.01 (while some more mathematically inclined people take 18.014). However, I believe a lot of people get advanced standing credit for that course.
