Using Spesh for physics ?

I recently heard from a person who got a 45 in spesh that he used his spesh knowledge in some of the physics exam and got a 50. Out of curiosity, which topics did he use in physics

:)

Probably kinematics and mechanics

Although you definitely don't need to do spesh to do well in physics.

Obviously this is just speculation, but the only places that Spec could conceivably help for are kinematics and dynamics problems.

Practically though, Physics doesn’t require any calculus so you shouldn’t really be disadvantaged or advantaged by taking Spec.
