    I never did A&P online, but I did take my microbiology online and it should work the same way. Your lecture material is all online, but you still have to meet on campus for your lab class. Generally your lab meets one or two time a week.

    And sadly, there are no human cadavers. You disect cats and other things like a sheep's heart. A human cadaver would be an awesome learning experience.

    I took all my pre-reqs at CPCC. Including A&P I and II. Let me suggest that you do not take A&P online like I did. The professor was horrible and the tests were not even from the textbook, but from another totally different one which I thankfully finally figured out. You can never count on online teachers to help answer questions, respond to emails, and correct grading mistakes. I made a C in both I and II, which is really low for me. It was just plain hard and the teacher was no help at all. Obviously, I can't tell you who the professor was, but just take my advice and don't take any online A&P classes at CPCC.

    To fully learn A&P, you need to be in a lab with other students and a teacher right there in front of you. If I had the time I would retake both I and II on campus.

    Thanks everyone. Long story short, things have changed in my workplace and I am able to take day classes so I have decided to pursue Carolinas College's guaranteed admission program and I am taking my classes (in person) there. I am still pretty nervous about A&P, but I have my text book and I've been reading it. Seeing the text makes it seem a little less impossible. I just have to keep telling myself, it's just science, you've taken many science classes, you can do this! Yes, I am paying way more. Yes, it's less convenient, but I think it will be worth it to "be known" there when I submit my application for the nursing program. At least that's what I am telling myself .
