Physics or Chemistry?? (1 Viewer)

Whatever floats your boat and you'll do better in. I can't understand why there's always the annual influx of "help, I need to choose between [X] and [Y] threads", but then again, I probably did that myself.

All that really should matter isn't what you'll do in the future. Just do whatever's easier, and whatever gets you into your desired course of choice. Bridging isn't that big of a PITA (who cares about the cost, right?).

Can anyone tell me, if you do both physics and chemistry, which subject you usually score higher marks in?

Just for curiosity.

I dunno. Personally, I way prefer physics. My mind is suited more towards concepts and applying them, whereas chemistry seems (to me) to be more content...

Dude, just do Physics
You get to learn about hectic stuff
All you do in Chemistry is memorise compounds and a crapload of rules for chemical reactions.. What the hell

Usually Chemistry but I did better in Physics because I aced the yearly.

I usually score better in Physics.

Chemistry is slightly more wordy and has markers that are far more pedantic than in physics. I don't do physics, but i've been told by my friends that do it as well as teachers (our head teacher writes the HSC exams for phys + chem). If you're mathematically inclined do physics, if not, do chem (not set in stone). Both are good subjects, and besides, you don't learn that much in secondary school science, so you won't be disadvantaged in uni.

Actually, Physics is less maths-orientated than a few years back, Syllabus change (old news)
But yeah, Phys is awesome

 

[poisonives]

there is some overlap between physics and (4u) maths such as mechanics and also projectiles

I am doing Physics for HSC and i am really enjoying it..

And i heard it from my friend who both does Chem and Physics and he said Chemistry is harder than Physics for him..

Well, after taking all of you advice (thank you very much) and speaking to friends etc, i THINK i will decide to do PHYSICS due to many reasons.

As said from before "personal ineterest > scaling" , and i truly enjoy physics, while chemistry is just a bunch of theory.

All i got to do know is tell my principal i want to DROP Chemistry
