Physical Sciences that Won’t Break the Budget!

If your high school student needs to study PHYSICAL science this year, you know that online sciences can be EXPENSIVE! I have some great online courses and lab resources to share that are very low cost! These courses all generate high school credit, and I’ll show you how to use each of them for college credit too!

What is physical science anyway?

The study of inanimate natural objects.

Are these courses worth college credit?

No, these courses are worth high school credit on you homeschool transcript. All can be turned into potential college credit by passing a standardized exam.

How do you turn these courses into college credit?

At the completion of any rigorous high school course, your student may decide to test out of the college course using a standardized exam. Allocate a few extra weeks for “test prep” before taking a standardized exam.
