[quote=Anonymous]If he took and did well in AP physics and AP chemistry in high school and you're talking about intro classes in college, he could definitely do well in the class without going to the lectures. It's harder if he did not already learn the substance of the class. But if he's going to regular one-on-one tutorials, he may in fact learn the material better than sitting in a giant lecture hall. Even better if he has a strong study group, even if they rotate attendance at the lecture. FYI - This only works with intro calculus, physics, and chemistry that hew closely to the APs and have pretty standard content at every college. The downside is that it reinforces bad habits (skipping classes, relying on tutors, notes of others) that will be problematic in other classes.[/quote]
