Hey guys, long time lurker. I've noticed VCE Physics has quite a dull and boring reputation and isn't liked amongst most students (hence my 3/4 class having 5 students) whereas it is easily my favourite subject and is very fun, what do you guys think of the subject overall?
Can't say for VCE but as a student in the HSC Physics course and heavily inclined to drop the subject I feel like most people are overwhelmed at the complexity of Physics. It generally comes off as a very daunting, sophisticated and mathematical subject which many may despise.
As a person who's been in the course for a year I just can't seem to understand it properly. I find it rather hard to grasp many of the concepts presented and the overwhelming formulas very discouraging (I say this but at the same time I'm taking Ext 2 Maths so Idk what's up with me).
You may find it likable and that's fantastic
But it's down to personal preference. Many are turned off by the negative connotations of the subject (many of my friends were). It's a great subject nevertheless and I do enjoy many aspects of it. Currently doing Relativity and the theories behind it are quite mind blowing
