AI Thread Summary
For those interested in pursuing an online physics degree, Oxford University in the UK offers a relevant program, although the website may not always be updated. The Open University is also a viable option for students based in the UK. To prepare for a physics degree, strengthening math skills is essential, and resources such as textbooks can be beneficial for foundational knowledge. Engaging with math in free time is a productive approach for those transitioning from other fields, like psychology, to physics.

I am interested in a physics degree and I was wondering if there is a good school for it online? Also, what kind of things should I study in order to prepare for it, and do they have book for it?
