Is it necessary to take physics?

Question

I am going into my senior year in high school and want to know if i should take Anatomy, which would be my preference, or Physics. I've heard that a lot of colleges look for a student's high school credentials to include physics, but haven't found any requirements for physics on the websites of the colleges i want to apply to. Also, i am thinking about studying Architecture, is high school physics a requirement for architecture programs? Any help/advice would be awesome.

No, it's not necessary. Most colleges don't have that specific of a requirement for sciences because there are so many advanced classes you could take--to require physics would be limiting. And high school physics isn't a requirement for anything--if anything, it won't count unless it's a college-level class.
