I suspect that the "physical science" courses that have been
described here are not the common type. Most of the ones I have been
in contact with have been about 90% chemistry and 10% physics, if
they have any time left over at the end of the year. And the general
quality of the material has been such that they are almost worse
than no course at all.
It has also been typical of physical science courses that they are
mostly taken by the non-academic types, and the serious students who
wanted science courses were steered away from physical science and
took only the traditional biology-chemistry-physics sequence.
