How much harder is uni physics than high school physics? By uni physics I mean only the first year MCAT level courses.

Well, I went from normal high school physics to calc based physics for engineers. So, about 20 times harder.

Take your physics pre-req before you take the MCAT. You would be severely hurting your chances for MCAT success if you don't. Not to mention that you'll have to take physics anyway.

Yes, at least 20 times harder but it will pay off. Take it!!!!

AP Physics= College Physics- same difficulty, same material. Took AP physics and took calc based physics in college, what a breeze!

I took algebra based physics in college (class said calculus based, but we only used calculus a few times... was pretty silly) and tutored AP physics. The AP physics material that my tutee's had was pretty easy in comparison. Maybe 50% to 25% the difficulty level. My college class was far more conceptual.
