<p>I'm a sophomore looking to take Precalculus Honors before September, but since I don't have time to take a real class over the summer, I wanted to do it online. I must pass my school's Precalc Honors final exam to successfully enter AP Calculus AB this year, and since my school is extremely good, this can't just be an "enrichment" course--it has to fully cover the Precalculus Honors curriculum and teach me well.</p>
<p>I'm deciding between EPGY and CTY online courses right now, but I'm not sure which one to pick. (If it matters, I have participated in the CTY summer program before this.) I'm leaning towards EPGY just because a few Google searches have turned up good testimonies about its math program, but I would really appreciate it if you could offer any insight on the quality of either or both programs.</p>
<p>With EPGY you can start at the beginning of each month (you need to register at least 15 days ahead to avoid $50 late fee. That’s was couple years go. I don’t know the current policy). You may want to start in May to make sure you can finish before the summer ends. Have you done any self-studing before?</p>
<p>@cool it is still the same policy.</p>
<p>I want to start in March or April because I don’t have much time over the summer (I’d be willing to pay the late fee for March).</p>
<p>I didn’t know that it was so cheap! I thought that I had to take classes from the EPGY Online High School, where a single course is $3200. So for self-paced courses, the $495 variable term course at [Education</a> Program for Gifted Youth](<a href=“http://epgy.stanford.edu/]Education”>http://epgy.stanford.edu/) is good and thorough?</p>
