AP Physics C: Mechanics is a calculus-based course that forms the first part of a college sequence and serves as the foundation in physics for students interested in the physical sciences or engineering. Strong emphasis is placed on solving a variety of challenging problems, requiring some calculus that is presented to students during instruction. At least 25% of instructional time is dedicated to hands-on laboratory investigations. Schools could offer this course as a single or a double block class, with extended time for lab inquiry activities. Students are expected to take the accompanying AP Exam, which may qualify them for advanced standing in college and/or college credit.
