Question about first year courses at Queen's

[Guest wannabe101]

Hey guys,

I was wondering how different PHYS 107 and PHYS 106 are as well as CHEM 112 and 116. Will choosing the harder courses make much of a difference in my marks? I ask this because the harder courses are required if I ever want to do a chem or physics major. Thanks for the help.

Well all you need are PHYS 107 and CHEM 112. But you may need the PHYS 106 and CHEM 116 if you want to major in Chemistry. But the difference is in CHEM 112 and CHEM 116 is miniscule....but PHYS 107 is geared towards the high school curriculum and PHYS 106 , from my understanding, will be relatively all new material. PHYS 107 is non-calculus physics and PHYS 106 is calculus based physics. Hope that helps
