Is Prelim/HSC Physics really difficult? Difficult enough to make your nose bleed? (1 Viewer)

So I've just started Year 11 today, And one of my friends who is in his
second term of Year 12 was telling me that Prelim/HSC Physics is so so
so hard.
He was saying that at the start of the year there were 18 in the class,
after a few weeks only 8 were left! But that just MIGHT be cause we have a
scary and strict teacher. He also said something like once his nose bled cause he had to think so
much in it! Haha okay well that part made me laugh, but It's freaking
me out because I'm doing Physics!

Is Physics really that hard? Is it possible for someone who hates
physics/is her weakest point in all the sciences, to do well in
Physics? Tips/Suggestions/Advice anyone?

gaaaaah! :jaw:</pre>

Nah it isn't difficult but it is a bit tricky in some concepts such as vectors plus it's kind of boring compared to HSC Physics but then again it doesn't count so why worry? HSC Physics is all right. Some things are just a bit difficult to understand but they're hard to visualise. Just go look at some animations and they should clear up nay of his mess.

Nah, it's not that difficult but there are some annoying parts like BCS that are designed to be rote-learnt.

Ah okay, phew thanks for the advice. Yeah it seems pretty boring, I don't really like physics that much.
thanks :)
