<p>Hi, I'm planning to take Calculus III (in order to get ahead or maybe catch up in some cases) over the summer between my Junior and Senior year (this summer). I am currently enrolled in Calculus AB, but I'm self studying for the BC exam in May. There is a Calc C/D honors class for seniors at my school, where the D portion is multivar, but I heard it isn't properly taught and colleges don't see it as Calc 3.</p>
<p>So I was wondering, are there any online courses or colleges near Los Angeles that will let me take it? If so, may I please have a link to it. I've already tried google, but to no avail. Also, would this be a good decision for someone who's probably going to major in engineering?</p>
<p>Thanks for reading.</p>
<p>See if your local community college offers Multrivarable calc (they probably do). Most likely that credit will transfer over to any public school in your California, though if you are looking at private schools it may not.</p>
<p>Hey viciouspoultry, I found a program at a community college but there is an obstacle I need to get around. I need a “Recommendation for Admission of Selected Students / Permission to Register” from a counselor. Seeing as to how I’m taking Calc AB right now, they might not let me go straight to Calc 3 (although the college has a placement test, I believe).</p>
<p>For an engineering (or physics or math) major, university sophomore math will be multivariable calculus, linear algebra, and differential equations. This is typically either two semester or three quarters (on a quarter system, there are three quarters in a normal academic year, with the fourth quarter being the summer session). If you take all of them then you should not have any problems with having to repeat courses that you have had partially due to the semester / quarter system difference. If you take only one (or two of three) and go to a university that is on a different semester / quarter system as your community college, then you may end up having to repeat a partial course.</p>
<p>Transferable courses at community college are likely to be the best choice for these courses. You can use assist.org to match up community college courses to UC or CSU courses.</p>
