<p>I am currently a rising sophomore who will be doubling up in Honors Algebra 2 and Plane Geometry during the school year. I would have taken Honors Plane and Solid Geometry, but they denied my request and I chose the honors algebra course because my passion is physics. I would like to take one of the AP Physics C classes by my senior year. However, calculus is a definite pre-requisite. I think that getting as much preparation as I can beforehand would be better than taking AP Calc. BC concurrently with the physics class. The AP Physics classes are only offered online on VHS at my school. Honors Physics is the only advanced Physics class that is not online. So the introductory physics course would give me a great foundation in physics and a chance to delve deeper into more advanced physics concepts before taking the actual AP class. I was thinking I would borrow a PreCalculus textbook from my school over the summer and use free online supplements to self-study the class (My parents cannot afford an actual class). What do you all think of this? Is it a bad idea or a good idea? Has anyone one here ever done this? Thank you for your time.</p>
<p>Yeah I’m thinking of doing the same thing! Except I also have an internship and chemistry course.</p>
<p>@eligarar Seriously? Wow! And I thought I was actually being productive. But having a lot on your plate may put you in the zone or the mood to focus.</p>
<p>Yeah, I recommend you do the same. Just devote about 3 hours each night before you go to bed. Khan academy is pretty helpful too, and you could go to local learning centers</p>
