Well keep in mind for Physics there are two levels. Used to be one level didn't use Calculus but the engineering focussed Physics did. At GMI obviously it was the latter.
Calc isn't too bad. Calc II I took when I was at CMU before I transferred to GMI. We started with 35 students, ended up with 12 by the final and the highest grade was for some kid from Mt. Pleasant High School who was taking some college classes. I had a solid C, my lowest grade ever..............until I went to visit the professor and had a very nice talk with him. I told him I hadn't worked harder in any other class so far and it would sure be a shame to get a C for that much work. Report cards came and he had given me a B-. And still I can't recall working harder for a grade.
But to your question, Physics and Calculus depend on you. If you think logically and linearly, you should be ok. But if you don't it would be like me taking a class in art and poetry........................wait I did that too.....OUCH!
My suggestion is to decide what you want to do or be and pursue that regardless of the effort it takes to get there. If you really have a passion for engineering, than you should pursue that.
If you want to talk about engineering, call me and I'll help if I can.
Jeeze was that a long answer to a short question, eh?
