SATMadness Posted September 9, 2012 Report Share Posted September 9, 2012 (edited) Currently I have to make the decision between Chemistry HL or Physics HL.For me, I am pretty good at both subjects, however i definitely find myself using more time to study Physics.My chemistry teacher has always had a reputation of being unorganised and not so good at teaching. However we have a really really good physics teacher.I like physics better than chemistry, however i am quite concerned about the workload. This is because I have a lot of co-curricular activities, and have heard that physics Hl has a lot more work than chemistry.I really could not make up my mind between the two. Can you please give me some suggestions? Edited September 9, 2012 by dskamy Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sword (Hubert Pomorski) Posted September 9, 2012 Report Share Posted September 9, 2012 What are you going to study, if you don't mind asking? It is important, because some of things in Physics HL are quite nice to know while studying engineering. Chemistry, in my school, is quite medicine-oriented, so I've found it absolutely useless for me. Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

carpediem Posted September 9, 2012 Report Share Posted September 9, 2012 I think you should go with Physics. You like it more, which makes you more enthusiastic for the subject, so you'll be able to stick through the workload of Physics HL more than Chemistry HL and (from personal experience) you'd be able to learn the subjects you enjoy better. Enjoying your subjects increases the likelihood that you'll put in the time for work. You might as well enjoy your Higher subjects since they are Higher subjects. Plus, you'd have co-curriculars anyway if you were doing the IB Diploma. 1 Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
