Dear all:
I am a student at the University of Hartford and next semester I must take an Introductory physics course with basis on Calculus. Now I was pondering simply takeing a month or two and teaching it to myself and then testing out of the class so I can move onto more advanced materials quicker. I have taken a calculus course and I have the more basic fundalmentals down. What do people think? too risky? or think it might be beneficial to take the class anyways? I am trying to locate examples of the math myself so i can determine if i have the knowledge to do what I want to do.

Thanks for your help!

you might consider, if there's a lab component to the course, then they might not let you test out of it.
