alexalexalex Posted May 2, 2016 Report Share Posted May 2, 2016 Heyy guys, so I've chosen my IB subjects recently and one of them is Maths HL (I have 4 HLs) My great passion is physics and that's something I want to pursue later in life BUT recently I've heard how extreemeeeelyy difficult HL Maths is and I wanted to ask if there are any uni courses that have anything to do with physics where they don't require HL Maths? Another small question I have, is it more beneficial to have Chem instead of Bio as another HL if I want to study something with physics when it comes to admission? Tysm!!!

Andrew Posted May 2, 2016 Report Share Posted May 2, 2016 Math HL is quite ok, if you like them anyway, and if you really have the gut to stomach that much knowledge. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Hiddleston Posted May 2, 2016 Report Share Posted May 2, 2016 Currently taking SL Math and that's already a lot to stomach. I'd say Chem HL will be much more beneficial than Math HL as chemistry is the connecting science. Go for math only if you have a genuine passion for math and would be okay studying math everyday. Hope this helps. X Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magician Posted May 3, 2016 Report Share Posted May 3, 2016 I do agree that Maths HL is relatively hard but considering that you will be pursuing a degree relating to Physics in the future, taking Maths HL is certainly beneficial as a fundamental building block (if not required for certain courses)! Physics is basically applied Maths imo. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
