No high school calculus, chemistry, physics class? Caltech has a new admission work-around

Caltech is dropping calculus, chemistry and physics course requirements for some underserved students and will offer alternative ways to demonstrate knowledge in those fields.

Khan Academy is extra bona fide now.

FAQs

Is c/PhD related or connected to r/PhD?
No. Other than sharing pretty much the same rules and name as /r/Phd this community is not affiliated in any way with /r/Phd.

Did the idea for c/PhD come from the r/PhD community?
No. r/PhD was the inspiration for starting this c/PhD on Lemm.ee, but this idea did not start or come from within r/PhD.

Do the mods of r/PhD know about c/PhD? Yes. I consulted with them before opening this community, asking if they would be interested in coordinating activities or participating on c/PhD. Mods replied saying they have no interest in moving or branching out to Lemmy, and encouraged us to create c/PhD.
