<p>Has anyone in here enrolled in any of their advanced classes? I'm planning to enroll in either Modern Algebra/Real Analysis. Looking at their prices (!!!), I'm wondering if it's worth shedding that many dollars.</p>
<p>It’s not worth it if you’re only interested in padding your resume (because it doesn’t help for admissions). It’s worth it if you’re actually interested in learning something (because you will).</p>
<p>Have you taken classes yourself? I’m not really concerned about “padding my resume”, I’m just don’t know if taking an online class is a good substitute for learning in an actual classroom. Especially when I’m paying $500+ for a class.</p>
<p>I see that they also use an online software to teach. Any good?</p>
<p>I’m taking AP Physics C and I like it. I also used EPGY in elementary school.</p>
<p>I see it as an opportunity to take classes not offered at your school, or to learn more than you otherwise would in a classroom. I know some classes in high school are absolutely terrible, and obviously with EPGY you wouldn’t have a bad teacher that doesn’t teach. Also, the lectures are pretty easy to follow. Having a mentor you can contact is also pretty convenient.</p>
<p>Do you also get tested as well??</p>
<p>yes, you do.</p>
<p>Seems pretty useless to me</p>
<p>^Depending on your school, you can get credit for the classes. It’s a nice alternative if you don’t mind the price.</p>
<p>Why pay when a public school will offer the same APs for free and depending on your area at a good to high quality. Now if you don’t live in a good area, you probably can’t and shouldn’t pay for this and instead do your best to be a shining example at your school with what you have (which I understand is limited, since I live in a bad area on permit to a good public school) and the universities will mop that up and accept you.</p>
<p>It’s not AP, it’s college (upper division) level courses that I’m planning to enroll in.</p>
<p>And I’m not doing this for college apps, I’m doing it because I’m done with the HS curriculum and I want to advance further.</p>
<p>I am taking AP Physics B, and have taken PreAlgebra, Algebra, Algebra 2, ENG 10A, B, and C there. </p>
<p>Frankly, you learn a lot. lol</p>
