So I found out I didn't get into Kent State's accelerated BSN program because I still need Intro to Organic Chem 10052. I'm going to try and take it this summer and reapply for Kent's Fall 09 program. I have an 8 week old daughter and was wondering if anyone has taken any of the prereq's online somewhere else? I'm having a hard time trying to schedule in taking a class during the day, but can probably swing daycare if I was going to school fulltime.
Hope someone else out there has taken them online! Any help would be great.
Thanks!

I took organic chem online through Tri-c. It was super easy. You have to go in on 4 different Sat. for labs and take tests at testing centers otherwise its cake.

I would call the school and ask them how they feel about an online chemistry course. My guess is that may be a point against you. Online courses for other requirement may be ok but I would limit it to one- excluding chem and a&p. Chemistry is a really important foundation course. A good base knowledge will help in your understanding of many concepts that you would encounter later on in nursing school. Try to take it in a classroom with a real lab. Tak

Kent State is very picky about where you get your credits, especially if you have a declared major. You need to ask an advisor about this so that you are not left out in the cold after you take the class, if you do. Did they say that that was the only reason you did not get into the program?
