Best iTunes U courses in mathematics?
I have math 020: beginning algebra downloaded. I completed until Algebra 2 in high school last year (took me from 10th-12th grade to pass with C).
The major I applied for a few months ago was bio-medical engineering. I'm in a transfer program. I'd like to start at U-M Ann arbor within a year.
The CLEP + iTunes U saves the hassle of financial aid and general costs, time, and personal social issues.
I'd like to minor in economics or political science, whichever is more comprehensive, and like to know computer science well enough.
The engineering program at U-M's prereqs are as follows:
Math: College Level Calculus I, II, III and Differential Equations.(Math, 115, Math 116, Math 215, and 216)
Physics: Calculus-based Physics with labs (PHY 140, PHY 141, PHY 240, PHY 241L)
Chemistry: General College Chemistry with lab (CHEM 130/125L/126L or CHEM 210/211L)
Computing: Computer Programming, C++ preferred. (ENGR 101 or EECS 183) Some departments will accept other programming languages. See a list of other accepted programming languages.
English: English Composition (ENG 125)
thank you.

Disabuse # 1 - It is not going to happen as you plan. The Biomedical engineering program at UM is ABET-accredited, with very high standards. Your correspondence coursework will not be accepted for credit, although it may have some value for preparatory work so your UM courses are more manageable.
Disabuse #2 - You will not have time, energy, or much interest in a minor. The Engineering school would probably not approve it anyway. Forget about that. You will have tons of computer application experiences in your degree program. Read PoliSci and Econ in your [probably non-existent] spare time.
Disabuse #3 - Have a backup plan. Getting into UM School of Engineering is extraordinarily competitive. Here is the ABET search site so you can find a few other programs to apply to. http://main.abet.org/aps/Accreditedprogramsearch.a...
