How hard is physics if you are excellent at calculus and linear algebra?

That should probably be easy. Try it out to be sure.


Is calculus harder than linear algebra?

The answer depends very much on your aptitude, and possibly your interest: there are no absolutes. Some people find calculus easy but not linear algebra and others are the opposite.


Is Pre-Cal harder than Calculus?

Definitely AP Algebra (1)^2.


Can you take precalculus and algebra 2 trig at the same time?

No, you can't. Although similar in concepts, Pre-Calculus is more advanced than Algebra 2. Algebra 2 is taken between Algebra 1 and Geometry or after Geometry and before Pre-Calculus. The reason that you can't take both at the same time is because of the curriculum. Pre-Calculus does not spend nearly as much time on linear topics (linear equations, linear programming, etc.) as Algebra 2 does. Pre-Calculus also almost always is 2 courses in one: Pre-Calculus and Trigonometry. Algebra 2 has very little, if any, trig. Topics that they have in common are quadratics equations/functions, polynomial equations/functions, rational functions, exponential & logarithmic functions (sometimes these are not covered in Algebra 2), possibly conic sections in Algebra 2, definitely in Pre-Calculus, factoring, and probability/sequences/series/statistics. In addition to trigonometry, pre-calculus also covers polar and parametric topics (these will NEVER NEVER NEVER be seen in Algebra 2) and an introduction to limits. So, you must take Algebra 2 before pre-calculus. If you want to take 2 math courses in 1 year, try algebra 1 and geometry (not very common), algebra 2 and geometry (somewhat common), and some schools allow honors students with a solid A in Algebra 2 (assuming you took Algebra 2 before Geometry, this differs between schools) allow you to take geometry and pre-calculus in the same year. The study of proofs is not a major topic in pre-calculus, and proofs make up a majority of geometry.

Is pre-calculus trigonometry easier than pre-calculus algebra?

If you have the option to take Pre-Calc Algebra, do that.


Will you fail calculus if you are good at algebra?

You'll certainly not fail BECAUSE you are good at algebra - you need to know algebra well, to understand calculus. So, it is not guaranteed that you will succeed, but if you are good at algebra, your chances are certainly a lot better than if your are not good at algebra.

Is calculus harder than physics?

Some people find calculus easier, others find physics easier. There is no general answer.


Is algebra harder than calculus?

No calculus is harder, because calculus is basically a combination of algebra and trigonometry, so you need algebra to do calculus. Also, calculus involves limits, differentiation, and integration. Integration makes algebra look like kindergarten. +++ Meaningless question, ditto with the answers I'm afraid. These are not separate entities but all fields of mathematics, and you use algebra in expressing and solving mathematical problems. Calculus is NOT "basically a combination of algebra and trigonometry". You can differentiate and integrate trig. functions, but although calculus alone does not rely on trigonometry for its existence, its manoeuvres are all algebraic steps. As to comparative difficulty, that is entirely down to you. If you find algebra difficult you will find trigonometry and calculus difficult, because algebra is used to describe those two (and any other) mathematical process. Algebra is not an isolated topic!


Is Pre-algebra easy?

It depends. It's easier than Algebra.

Is quantitative skills and reasoning easier than algebra?

no


Which math is easier Calculus AB or Calculus BC?

Calculus AB tends to be easier due to it being mostly composed of the basic introductory to Calculus. Whereas Calculus BC contains information from AB but as well as further information which could possibly be somewhat more rigorous than AB.


Is statistics easier than precalc?

Statistics and precalculus both require skills in algebra. The difference between basic statistics and precalculus is that, precalculus is more of advanced algebra. Statistics on the other hand is more computational stuff. If you are talking about basic statistics, i think it is easier than precalculus. But remember, statistics is more involved as it gets higher since it requires calculus or real analysis kind of thing, so it is difficult.
