Physics or Theoretical Physics?

I've seen the course details but still cannot get the difference. Could some students explain it for me? Thank you so much!!!
Theoretical physics is far more mathematical than the standard, experimental Physics degree; expect to do more quantum topics in theoretical. You do not do lab work in later years in a theoretical physics degree. No change in 1st nor 2nd year (that is A2 and 1st year for English students).
