AP physics 1 by CTY john hopkins

My son took the AP physics 1 online course via John Hopkins and I felt that the money was totally wasted. He has taken AP cal ab, computer sc a, and world history from AP homeschoolers and flvs, which are a lot cheaper and has completely enjoyed it. But physics 1 has been such a disaster. I wanted to know if anyone else faced the same problem with CTY?

My D hasn’t taken any of the CTY online courses but, with the exception of Crafting the Essay, this is consistent with what I’ve read over the years.

The summer on-site programs are great, but not so much the online courses. My understanding is that most are developed elsewhere and can be taken at a lower price from those who created the programs.
