Thanks for writing this, I recognize its importance. I am taking online high school courses now. It is offered through a high school that also has a standard recognized day program, so I am confident in it.

I plan on consulting an independant course provider for 12 chem and 12 earth/space science since this program does not have those available. Any problems with this? ILC in Toronto.
