Post Free Game Programming Course

Yes you heard it right, it's absolutely completely free.

http://www.gameprogramming.org/

I am right now going to try for quarter 7 of the course (starts in November)

There is a math entrance exam that deals mostly with college algebra and calculus. So you will need sufficient math back ground to qualify for the course, but after all the 12 quarters of the course (That's if you get in) You get a certerficate upon completion. Which I thought was VERY cool and this is all completely free so I thought I'd share it with the more intelligent population of Zelaron.

I signed up, no e-mail came to me though. I doubt I could handle the math anyway.

Algebra is no problem, but I've never even taken calculus.

Is there an age requirement?

There is no age requirement, as long as you can keep up you're in... I think there are some 13 year olds in the course too
