No. Courses are organized by level, and the foundations track assumes nothing beyond high school physics. Most students start there before moving into intermediate and advanced material.
Getting StartedYou decide if you want to continue. Some courses are free the whole way through; others unlock the rest once you're enrolled. There's no pressure and no auto-charging.
Getting StartedMost students spend 3–5 hours a week between live classes, assignments, and review. You can move faster or slower depending on your competition timeline.
Getting StartedBoth. Each course pairs live classes with recorded lessons, so you can attend sessions in real time and revisit the material afterward at your own pace.
