dereksurfs Posted June 11, 2016 Share Posted June 11, 2016 (edited) There are many of us here who have kids taking demanding science courses in the Fall. As such, I thought it would be good to list some Summer prep resources. Our son will be taking a fairly intense college chemistry course as dual enrollment this Fall. It will be his first 'demanding' college course as a 10th grader. While he satisfies all the prerequisites, I wanted to give him some Summer prep for it. In doing some research, I found many high quality options. For our down select, I had him begin listening to the lectures form several of these resources - all freely available. His favorite is UC Berkeley's Chem 1A which we are using: Berkeley eChem 101: http://echem1a.cchem.berkeley.edu/ Two part Chemistry course from Rice U: I. https://www.class-central.com/mooc/2375/coursera-introduction-to-chemistry-reactions-and-ratios II. https://www.class-central.com/mooc/2665/coursera-introduction-to-chemistry-structures-and-solutions MIT - Introduction to Solid State Chemistry: https://www.edx.org/course/introduction-solid-state-chemistry-mitx-3-091x-3#! Chemistry 1 University of Kentucky: https://www.coursera.org/learn/chemistry-1/home/welcome AP Course prep from Khan Academy: AP Biology AP Calculus AB and BC AP Chemistry AP Physics 1 & 2 Edited June 12, 2016 by dereksurfs 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daijobu Posted June 12, 2016 Share Posted June 12, 2016 Woot! Can we pin this? I don't want to lose it! And I had no idea Khan offered AP prep. Thank you for the heads up. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, I didn't realize it either until they sent a recent email about their AP prep courses. Its really amazing how much is freely available now.

We already have a chemistry thread pinned at the of the board, just add it there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dereksurfs Posted June 13, 2016 Author Share Posted June 13, 2016 (edited) We already have a chemistry thread pinned at the of the board, just add it there. Yes, I thought about that originally. However, I wanted to focus more specifically on prep resources for all science subjects. Edited June 13, 2016 by dereksurfs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
