Physics 211

Hello

Im struggling with physics 211, I heard some ppl take it at community college, does anyone know which college is possible? and is it really any easier? I looked up Harrisburg area com college.

Thanks in advance :slight_smile:

You would need to see which colleges offer a comparable course that Penn State will take in place of physics 211 - you don’t want to take it at HACC and then have Penn State turn down the transfer! I am assuming you are in a major where this course is required, and if this is the case you should definitely complete it at PSU, as the material and rigor elsewhere might be slightly different, which could hurt you in the long run!

there is a widget somewhere on the psu website (probably the registrar’s office) that does exactly that. You can look up a school like HACC and see which of their courses transfer. Keep in mind that th credit transfers, so you can fulfill a requirement, but the grade does not so your gpa is unaffected

This might be easiest? Search for PHYS 211 and see what schools offer equivalents.

Good luck. I think the final just kicked my butt.

@bodangles … I know my daughter was grateful for that 15 point curve. Done with freshmen weeder classes!
