Hello,
I have signed up to take my A & P classes online. The local college offers 5 sections online and only 1 traditional class. I am also taking Microbiology online- same thing. Has anyone had experience taking these online, and what is your opinion of the experience?
Thanks for your input!

I have taken many online classes and really appreciated the setup and convenience of doing classwork on my own schedule. However, I took A/P in person. Personally, I think it wold be difficult unless the instructor was an active member in the online classroom and was very accessible to their students. How does the lab component factor in?

I took A&P online this summer. It was hard but I pulled a B. I wish I had taken it alone so I could concentrate on it but I took it with Statistics. It was not a good idea to take 2 time consuming classes, while working fulltime and taking care of kids.
It is doable. I took Micro in a traditional classroom in 2002 so I don't have to repeat it. If I did, I would take it online.
My class did the lab component on the computer or using household items to perform experiments.
