Self paced physics I and II with lab
#1
Hello. I'm looking for a self paced, "easy" algebra based course to cover the physics (+lab) I and II requirement for my TESU Bachelor's. Money is not my primary concern, time is. Doesn't need to be RA. Any recommendations?

There are a few options that I know of:
1) Study.com for the courses, then TESU (or elsewhere) for the labs - minimum $199 + 519 + $128.09 + 519 + $121.89 = $1,486.98
2) UExcel for the courses, then TESU for the labs (check first) - $110 + 55 + 519 + $128.09 + 519 + $121.89 = $1,452.98
3) Doane University courses (not certain these are self-paced though) = $329/cr x 8cr = $2,632
4) local CC for the courses (find one that has 8-week terms within the semester)

The other option: Portage Learning/Geneva College's Chem I & II w/labs. = $198/cr x 8cr = $1,584

Thanks for your response! Study.com and Uexcel both sound like good options. 

Would TESU allow to only take the lab portion of the courses with them? If yes, how long does it typically take?

I would mix them up a little and do this:  Study.com for Physics I and II courses, StraighterLine for Physics I Lab, TESU for Physics II Lab

Maybe start off and see if you can select from your local community college first and see if there are courses available, some are accelerated and can be done in the first or second half of the semester.  

If you can't find one cheap, look for them at Clovis, Luna, NMJC (all in New Mexico), or check the wiki: https://degreeforum.miraheze.org/wiki/Sources_of_Credit

I forgot about Straighterline.

I just checked, the SL website shows that you have to take the course and lab together to get credit; so that's what I'd do for Physics I - then Study.com for the Physics II course, and TESU for the lab. That plan will save you some money for sure. Should be about $1186 for everything.

Thanks guys.

It looks like the SL physics courses and labs are calculus based. I'd like to avoid that. I'm essentially looking for a self paced course I can quickly get out of the way (if that's even possible).

Then back to the others I listed. It's up to you to research them, but those are the options we discuss on here.

This looks interesting! DD has Physics 1&2 transferred in, but needs Calc based Physics 1&2.
