Basic Foundation

You need to have a grasp of Physics and Math before you commence studying the theory to clear your PPL. I interlocked with some universities that offer this program as a degree, and here is what they shared. 

I can see some of you already walking away. It's really not as complex as some people assume it to be. In fact, the Math skills you would have acquired even through Mathematics AI SL is more than adequate. You just need to have a sound feel for basic algebra, arithmetic, and simple trigonometry.

If you have not studied Physics at school, it does not mean this aspiration is out of reach. Instead, you can self-study and ensure you have a sound understanding of the topics below, before you delve into the aviation books.

When it comes to Physics, if you have a good feel for Units and Measurement, Kinematics, Work/ Energy/ Power, Dynamics, Simple Harmonic Motion/ Waves, Thermodynamics and Electromagnetism, you are good to go!

Once you have a good understanding of the above, the PPL theory books would be easy to follow. All the best!
