Summer study in Australia vs Dual enrollemnt study at community collge?

AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on the benefits of studying in Australia versus pursuing dual enrollment for college credits. Participants express the need for more information regarding the implications of each option. The primary goal mentioned is obtaining a PhD, with dual enrollment allowing students to graduate high school with an Associate's degree, thus reducing the time needed for a bachelor's degree. The legitimacy of an invitation to study in Australia is confirmed by previous recipients, but there is uncertainty about its impact on college applications, particularly for the University of Florida. Ultimately, the conversation highlights the advantages of dual enrollment in achieving academic goals while considering the potential benefits of international study experiences.

I think we'll need more information.

What are your goals?

What will you study in Australia?

What exactly is dual enrollment? (I think you mean concurrent enrollment in high school and community college, but we have members from all part of the globe so I can't be sure what exactly that is.)
 
My ultimate goal is a PhD.

The Student Ambassadors sent me mail inviting me to "study" in Australia. Saying It will set me apart on college applications and considerations for other honors. I know It's legit because someone else got invited last year.

But I already had plan to gain college credits by doing duel enrollment and starting so this immediate summer.

I want to know would such an experience really help me out getting into a school(UF) as opposed to doing dual enrollment and gaining college credits.

Here Dual enrollment enables me to graduate high school with an Associates degree. I find this advantageous as i'd only have 2 years left of a bachelors then I could carry on to a PhD. I can do dual enrollment along the school year I think also, though.
 

Thread 'Self Learning Math/Physics'

Hey, I am Andreas from Germany. I am currently 35 years old and I want to relearn math and physics. This is not one of these regular questions when it comes to this matter. So... I am very realistic about it. I know that there are severe contraints when it comes to selfstudy compared to a regular school and/or university (structure, peers, teachers, learning groups, tests, access to papers and so on) . I will never get a job in this field and I will never be taken serious by "real"...
