Ok, thanks. Let me see if I got this now…
Option 1: Dual Enrollment at a community college.
This option gives my son required HS credits.
It may also give him college credits at some univs (depending on whether they accept it)
Option 2: Take regular Physics 1 at HS, but see if they allow him to take AP Physics 1 exam also.
Questions:
- In the second option, I am not sure whether he is required to find a tutor, or he is allowed to study on his own.
- If he needs a tutor, I am curious if anyone has experice with ucscout. Looks like ucscout has online tutoring. I am not sure how they handle the labs. Of course, the amount of classes & homework is weighing on our mind with Option 2.
- Any opinions whether the college credit course is more or less rigorous than the AP course.
- Finally does anyone know if Option 1 or 2 is preferable from the admissions point of view.
