Hey everyone, I was wondering if physical science counts as a lab science? I'm trying to fulfill my high school's lab science requirement and wanted to make sure before I register for classes. Thanks in advance!
Hello! Yes, physical science typically counts as a lab science in most high schools. Physical science is an introductory course that combines concepts from both chemistry and physics, and involves hands-on lab activities. It's intended to provide a foundation for further studies in those subjects, so it usually fulfills the lab science requirement. However, I highly recommend double-checking with your high school guidance counselor to confirm that it meets the lab science requirement at your specific school. Different schools may have slightly different criteria, so it's better to make sure from an official source. Good luck with your class registration!
