Self-studying Physics?

Applying to College
1

<p>I was wondering whether colleges would accept the fact that I will begin to teach myself AP Physics C using freeware such as MIT ocw and CMU's oli, because our school only offers AP Physics B which colleges barely pay any attention to. As a hs senior who wants to major in Computer Science (and most departments are in Engineering for colleges), I'm not sure whether self-teaching is preferred OR that I should take an online class. Which one's better for credibility? or does that not matter?</p>

<p>Additionally, does anyone else know any websites that can teach AP Physics C online?</p>

<p>Are you entering jr or sr year?</p>

<p>If you’re a sr, AP test results will not be available during the application process. So unless there’s a way your HS can document that you actually self-studied and learned the material, online with a grade that will be available before decisions are made would be better.</p>

<p>Yeah I’m a sr. And do you know any online sites that can offer ap physics C?</p>
