IB Smacher Glau Posted March 7, 2012 Report Share Posted March 7, 2012 I finally finished Communication and Medical I expexted they will be much harder than what i thought Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
afros Posted March 26, 2012 Report Share Posted March 26, 2012 Considering that mocks are now over is there anyone who could recommend where I may find May 2011 Physics HL Paper 3? Or if they have it could they send it to me via email? Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
IB Smacher Glau Posted March 26, 2012 Report Share Posted March 26, 2012 You can buy it from the IB store http://store.ibo.org/product_info.php?products_id=1577 Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
afros Posted March 26, 2012 Report Share Posted March 26, 2012 You can buy it from the IB storehttp://store.ibo.org...roducts_id=1577Thank you a lot, does it come with the markscheme? Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peanut Butter Jelly Posted April 17, 2012 Report Share Posted April 17, 2012 Which is harder, relativity or communcations? Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
IB Smacher Glau Posted April 17, 2012 Report Share Posted April 17, 2012 Which is harder, relativity or communcations?If you are really really good at Math Take Relativity but I find it confusing and harder than communication .. It's weird that a small number of student take Option F however it's really interesting and attractive to study !! therefore I encourage any one who studies ITGS or CS to take Communication beacuse it's easy and interesting with some equation to cope with unlike the relativity '!. 2 Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
HiggsHunter Posted April 17, 2012 Report Share Posted April 17, 2012 Which is harder, relativity or communcations?The material in Communications is quite elementary. It is perhaps the "easiest" option of all. 1 Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peanut Butter Jelly Posted April 18, 2012 Report Share Posted April 18, 2012 Hmm. So excluding Relativity, and astro, what would you recommend doing. Biomedical looks pretty short? Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
HiggsHunter Posted April 18, 2012 Report Share Posted April 18, 2012 To simply score well in the exam I would suggest Communications, because it looks the "easiest" option of all. But if another option such as Medical Physics would be more appropriate to your future studies or career, then of course that would be the better choice. 1 Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
break&burn&end. Posted May 23, 2012 Report Share Posted May 23, 2012 I did Relativity and Astro. Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
IB Smacher Glau Posted May 26, 2012 Report Share Posted May 26, 2012 Gd Luck to Every One Doing there exams on Novm Ask your mate who did May 2012 Exams cause Nov exam will be for sure harder than May !! Ask your friend and focus more on the things that didn't appear in May gd luclk 1 Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aura Posted October 27, 2012 Report Share Posted October 27, 2012 I'm the only person in my Physics class so I get to choose my options I'm taking particle physics (because I love it) and astrophysics (because I love it and I had to study the same topics for the Astronomy olympiad).Let's see how the exams go on November... >_< Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MLI Posted December 18, 2012 Report Share Posted December 18, 2012 (edited) Hey guys how do you see medical physics?? is it hard?? it seems short but i am not sure about its content :/ Edited December 18, 2012 by MLI Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
IB-Adam Posted December 25, 2012 Report Share Posted December 25, 2012 Hey guys how do you see medical physics?? is it hard?? it seems short but i am not sure about its content :/I would like to ask the same thing. It's seems to be rather easy? At least in comparison to the option about astrophysics? Which physics options should students who also take Chemistry HL do?

sushichan*-* Posted November 4, 2014 Report Share Posted November 4, 2014 We have done electromagnetic waves and we have one more option left for HL. The class is thinking of choosing either between Relativity and Astrophysics and the teacher is fine with teaching both. Which one do you think has harder concepts to understand out of these two options? Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vioh Posted November 4, 2014 Report Share Posted November 4, 2014 We have done electromagnetic waves and we have one more option left for HL. The class is thinking of choosing either between Relativity and Astrophysics and the teacher is fine with teaching both. Which one do you think has harder concepts to understand out of these two options? Harder concept? then it's definitely relativity! Astrophysics has a lot of hard, long, & confusing calculations (such as analysis of spectrum). But astrophysics often involves memorization of easy concepts. On the other hand, relativity has really really hard concepts, and it takes quite a lot of time to accept this great and brilliant theory, especially when you have to find your way out of many paradoxes within relativity. Besides, I don't feel like IB physics gives you a full understanding and appreciation of the theory of relativity. I mean, students don't even get to see the derivations of Lorentz transformation or the addition formula, making it hard for students to accept the theory. If you love physics, and like to challenge yourself a little bit, then go with relativity! Otherwise, astrophysics is a much easier option. 1 Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheLonelyDog Posted December 5, 2014 Report Share Posted December 5, 2014 What do you guys think about Biomedical Physics? I find it interesting, but is it a good HL option? Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Excalibre Posted May 11, 2015 Report Share Posted May 11, 2015 (edited) Well, since I just finished the last exam a moment ago, I can say with some certainty that Communication is an easy Option topic for HL. And based on personal opinions, the EASIEST Option topic is Medical Physics. So if you're ever in a precarious situation where you have one week to learn an entire Option topic, then Medical Physics is the way to go. I know this because I have experienced it.

Amit Gelbhart Posted January 19, 2016 Report Share Posted January 19, 2016 I wish my teacher would have picked Astrophysics or Engineering but sadly she went with Imaging.... to me it sounds kind of boring but she had to account for the SLs who take physics cause they arent science people.... therefore i need some suggestions... is Imaging super easy? (compared to other options) and is it worth doing another option for the interest factor rather than this topic for the 7? Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fire-Explosion Posted January 28, 2016 Report Share Posted January 28, 2016 I have a question!When and where do we apply astrophysics in real life? Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
