<p>Just because I’m clueless about problem sets - are they different from homework? That is, are they problems from the text, or some sort of very difficult problems made up by the professor? All the EPGY homework comes from the questions in the textbooks. </p>
<p>Mootmom - I have no actual knowledge, but my guess is that EPGY courses would be treated by MIT like courses from any other college. My further guess is that the credits are not directly transferable to MIT. BTW, although Stanford accepts EPGY courses, the credits, or “units” are not necessary the same. MV Calc is 8 units at EPGY, but only 5 at Stanford. I don’t how Stanford translates the units from EPGY to units at Stanford.</p>
<p>EPGY courses are distance courses. Each student is assigned tutor for each course. Exams are done on the honor system. An honor code form has to be signed by the student for each exam. Most exams must also be proctored by an adult who also has to sign the honor code form.</p>
