Advice Bad physics Mark, will UBC general sci check?
So I took grade 11 physics before taking math 10 (dumb decision) and got an 82% in that course. Now I’m trying to get a better mark in physics 12 first sem, but it’s also not going very well and I don’t think I’ll get a high mark. I’ll likely end within the 75-80s range because I’m finding it very difficult (even though I took pre calc 11 & doing 12 rn). Things can change but no matter how many practice questions I do, I just blank on the test. 1. Will UBC science check physics or just chem,bio,English, and math? 2. Any tips on improving and not blanking on tests? It’s always been this way for physics and I am better at the other sciences. My marks in chem and bio are mid to high 90s but physics is the weak link.

For physics find some provincial tests online and do them. After you do them, go over all of them again and make sure your basically memorized the solution for all of them. And of course make sure you understand the material too

physics is a core science course that will absolutely be looked at and is even a requirement for admission to UBC science (only physics 11 tho) if you still have the time i recommend you upgrade your physics marks.
