What science related class should I take for my junior year of High School?

So I’m taking Chemistry instead of Earth Science my Sophomore year, so next year I have a choice of three things:
1. Physics H
2. IB Biology
3. Anatomy

I’m planning to be a computer engineer when I grow up, so Physics would be the right choice?

What do you learn in Physics? For the most part is it difficult? more or less difficult than chemistry?

If you want to be an engineer, go with physics. You’ll need to take a lot of it in college, so get a head start on it now (even though you’ll need calculus-based physics in college). The basic intro physics course, at high school or college level will cover Newtonian mechanics, electricity and magnetism, waves, optics, maybe a little special relativity or intro to basic quantum mechanics. It’s a lot more math than chemistry, and that might trip some people up. I thought chemistry was easier, personally.
