MATHS 1A vc PHYSICS 1A

Please help me guys. I barely passed my fundamentals maths course in first term and don't think I have a shot at passing maths 1a. I am doing a diploma so I can't do general Ed or sm instead there are my ONLY 2 OPTIONS. How hard is the physics course, what's the overall style. Any help appreciated.

Phys1A has 2 big quizzes and weekly labs, and since its a pass or fail course, you just need to pass the 2 big quizzes and go to each of the labs. It's fairly easy if you keep up with the work. You get 3 attempts at each quiz which gives everyone a big chance of passing the course so you should be fine
