Physics of Our Universe: Honors Option

Science
Full-year option for the Physics requirement.

Earth’s Chemical Systems (formerly Biochem II) and recommendation of current science teacher.

In the honors section of the physics class, students will explore the same concepts as in the non-honors course, though the depth and pace of the course will reflect a higher level of rigor. The honors section is best suited for students who tend to pick up concepts more quickly and can master introductory problem-solving strategies with fewer examples needed. This allows the class to investigate more advanced applications of concepts and to solve more complicated problems. As an honors level course, it is expected that students enter the course with strong work habits, complete homework on a nightly basis, read independently for understanding, and demonstrate self-advocacy skills.
