biology online vs campus

I actually took bio online and wasn't sure how it would work but IMO it was fine. I'm a self sufficient type of student that wasn't afraid to ask for help when I needed it which I think is important. I made a lot of models out of candy and pipe cleaners that semester lol but it was fine!

I took it online but lab on campus. We have two separate classes. The professor had a PowerPoint lecture and I learned a lot. I would do it again. I have a high B in the course.

I took microbiology online and really enjoyed. I, too, have young children and it was great to be to take the class during times that worked with my schedule. I do think the assignments for the online class were a little bit more time intensive than the in-person class but it wasn’t bad.

Currently taking A&P II online (took A&P I last semester online and got B+). I am taking online courses for prerequisites because I have young children and I work full time and I like going to class and doing assignments at a time that is convenient. Its a lot of work but definitely doable and it works for me. Online courses requires you to be a self starter and good with managing time more than on campus I feel though

Thanks for all the great feedback. I think I'll go for it and hope for the best :yes:

Since biology is a very crucial class that is fundamental to future concepts I would recommend taking it in person. However, if you are thru type of student who can succeed and learn very well outside of the classroom then I believe you would do just fine.
