StraighterLine Calculus Tutorial - Pass Calculus for WGU Computer Science (A Step by Step Guide)
In this video I will be explaining the simplest way to pass General Calculus I at StraighterLine. This credit can then be transferred to many other universities to satisfy your Calculus requirement. This is a really common approach that people have been using to satisfy Calculus for the Computer Science (CS) program at Western Governors University (WGU).

StraighterLine Calculus Tutorial - Pass Calculus for WGU Computer Science (A Step by Step Guide)
Calculus has been a barrier to entry for CS and CS degrees for a lot of people, so I hope to remedy that with this video by showing a really manageable wait to pass calculus, specifically through straighterline.
No matter what level of math you are, even grade school, this video is going to help you, so please make sure you watch it!
In this video, I'll show you the steps to take, no matter what level your math is, that you can do to work your way up to calculus, and pass calculus at straighter line, giving you the calculus credit required for the CS program at WGU (as well as other colleges)
What the end result will be
At the end of this video, if you're someone who has been thinking about a CS degree, but is scared of the math that's involved, you should definitely feel more confident by the end of this video and have a good idea of how to approach learning it.
Lastly before we get started, I consider myself very average at math
Content:
1) Get calculator
2) Go to Khan Academy Figure out where you need to start
You need Algebra, Geometry, Algebra 2, Trig, Pre-calc, AP Calculus AB
Show samples
3) Register at Straighterline and go through the coursework
Try to get 100% on the homework (use wolfram alpha)
Try to get as close to 100% that you can on the "mid-term"
Get your calculator, relax, and take the final. Even if you fail it, you will pass
Tips:
Relax, don't get mad, it's easy to get frustrated
TAKE YOUR TIME as you go through KA. Don't go over 3 hours per day, take weekends off. TAKE DAYS OFF
Consider using wolframalpha and desmos graphic calculator. I used these a LOT to try stuff out
Enjoy conquering Calculus
Outro:
Again link to the Texas Instruments TI-Nspire CX II CAS Color Graphing Calculator with Student Software is in the description, it also exists on ebay. I got it from Amazon because I didn't want to wait
