<p>I've got a question: Is BYU's online pre-calculus class legitimate? I want to skip pre-calculus at my school and go into AP Calculus but I'm not sure how well I'll fare in AP Calculus, which is why I want to make sure I'm getting a good deal from BYU. Anybody know if they're good or not and if they provide sufficient preparation for the next level?</p>
<p>It’s not worth it. Honestly, it’s not. A lot of states have cheaper classes online. Look for those. If that’s all you can find, then go with it, but it’s way too expensive for something you could find cheaper some where else. </p>
<p>I was going to do that also, but living here in Idaho, we have Idaho Digital Learning Academy. $50 for a full credit of precalc versus $150 for a fourth a credit.</p>
<p>It’s not about the money really…more like the quality of the class? Am I getting a good education by doing it? Is it good and will it prepare for AP Calculus sufficiently…I mean I don’t plan on learning everything part I should be able to survive right?</p>
<p>It’ll be good enough I guess.</p>
<p>I’d email the “professor”, or whoever is in charge of helping students with that class.</p>
<p>Thy have a professor for online classes lol?</p>
<p>bumpity bump, i need this question answered?</p>
<p>Help please?</p>
<p>They have someone you can consult in case you have questions. I’m taking state offered online classes, and oddly enough, I do have teachers. Most people don’t use them, but they are their just in case. Check around and email in.</p>
<p>Yes, you will have teachers with a university sponsored online program. They are a little different from the state sponsored programs because their reputation is on the line. I took a class through Texas Tech online High School and I had a teacher who graded and sent feedback to me. We also had an online resource center in case we needed immediate help and couldn’t get to our teachers quickly enough. Other programs that are very good are University of Oklahoma HS, Indiana U HS, U of Miami, U of Mo. to name a few.</p>
