AI Thread Summary
There is a search for online calculus-based physics classes, with suggestions to check local universities for distance education options. However, there are reservations about the effectiveness of online courses compared to traditional in-person classes. Stanford's EPGY program is mentioned as a reputable option, but the consensus is that nothing can fully replace the experience of attending classes in person.

online physics class??

I'm trying to find an online calculus based physics class. Any links would greatly appreciated.

What do you mean an online calculus based physics class? Like distance education? You would have to contact your local university and see if they offer distance education, but I don't think it is recommended.
 
I've heard stanford's EPGY program is of some respect. but again nothing is a substitute for the real thing.
 
Bit Britain-specific but I was wondering, what's the best path to take for A-Levels out of the following (I know Y10 seems a bit early to be thinking about A-levels, but my choice will impact what I do this year/ in y11) I (almost) definitely want to do physics at University - so keep that in mind... The subjects that I'm almost definitely going to take are Maths, Further Maths and Physics, and I'm taking a fast track programme which means that I'll be taking AS computer science at the end...
After a year of thought, I decided to adjust my ratio for applying the US/EU(+UK) schools. I mostly focused on the US schools before, but things are getting complex and I found out that Europe is also a good place to study. I found some institutes that have professors with similar interests. But gaining the information is much harder than US schools (like you have to contact professors in advance etc). For your information, I have B.S. in engineering (low GPA: 3.2/4.0) in Asia - one SCI...
I'm going to make this one quick since I have little time. Background: Throughout my life I have always done good in Math. I almost always received 90%+, and received easily upwards of 95% when I took normal-level HS Math courses. When I took Grade 9 "De-Streamed" Math (All students must take "De-Streamed" in Canada), I initially had 98% until I got very sick and my mark had dropped to 95%. The Physics teachers and Math teachers talked about me as if I were some sort of genius. Then, an...
