physics class....

Physics is one of the sciences that are taught to high school students. It is usually taught in the fourth year level. But in the University of the Philippines High School in Cebu, it is taught in the third year level (Basic Physics) and in the fourth year level (Advanced Physics).

One can assume that Advanced Physics would be more difficult. But in my experience, I find Basic Physics harder. Maybe it is my fault (laziness), but I found basic physics very hard to be understood. It was just mainly about linear motion and projectile motion. But the formulas that were used in solving were very hard to utilize. During the first grading period, I was unable to answer more than 50% of the total questions asked (that includes the discussions, assignments, seatworks, long tests, and the periodical test).

One factor of my performance is Sir Nuñez's bedroom voice. Every physics class would be like a sleeping pill to me. I feel very sleepy during his class. That would make me very behind to the discussion. As I pondered upon my performance in the subject, I realized that I had to try harder. So I did. I practiced. I triumphed. Though I was not the best, my grade was enough to make me pass.

Now in the fourth year, I find advanced physics easier. The reason is that advanced physics is more on concepts. So I don't have to deal with a lot of equations
