I need help ASAP. I have been admitted to a couple of nursing programs, haven't decided which one to go to yet. But as of now, I need any statistics class and organic/biochemistry, or something equivalent. I need it to be distance learning (online, correspondence, etc.), and it has to be self paced so I can complete it ASAP. I live in Michigan, but that shouldn't matter with distance learning courses. I don't care what school it's at.
Here are the ones I already know of:
University of New England Online: Medical Biochemistry $1200
University of California Berkeley Extension Campus: Biochemistry, Statistics $800 ea.
Cal Campus: Organic Chemistry $645
Weber State University $900+ Organic and Biochem
I am looking for something cheaper than these. Anyone that can help, I'd greatly appreciate it.
Organic chemistry for nursing school? You typically have to take a year (8 credits) of general chemistry then you look at a year of organic chemistry. You are looking at 16 credits of chemistry for nursing school. This meets the typical requirements for entry into PA programmes. I am not sure many nursing programmes require this much chemistry unless we are talking about o/bio chem for healthcare type hybrid courses?
However, you are stuck with stats. I agree that an on-campus course is your best bet unless you are really good at math.
Specializes in Med/Surg, LTC, Rehab, Hospice, Endocrine.
Most BSN programs require Gen Chem and O/Bio Chem, for 10 units. Four each for lecture and another unit each for lab or however they split it up. Good luck to you! Let me know if you find a stats class....the program I am enrolling in has a table of transferable courses and so far I haven't found a stats class that transfers.

I attend Columbia College in Sonora, CA it is a 2 year junior college. We offer Chemistry online at 26.00 a credit. The class is 4 credits I believe and it is transferable. It qualifies for the Nursing program. Check into it at gocolumbia.edu
Hi, I took A&P I & II with lab through edukan, they charge $500 per class regardless of state residency. Check out their website to see if they offer the classes you need...I think it's www.edukan.org. I live in Ca. and I believe the $26 a unit mentioned previously only applies to Ca. residents but I could be wrong. Hope this helps and good luck.
Clinton Community College, part of the Eastern Iowa Community College District, offers Introduction to Organic and Biochemistry with Lab (CHM-132) online. To register, you do have to prove having met the prerequisite of an introductory chemistry class.
Labs are done via external research and also virtually, primarily using the Model ChemLab software, which is quite sophisticated. The midterm and final exams are proctored. For nonresidents, tuition is currently $142 per credit. This is a four-hour/credit course.
I am currently taking this class and think it is organized rather well, especially since this is the first time the instructor has offered it online. I searched high and low for this course before finding this one, which met all my criteria: completely online (with the exception of the midterm and final), reasonably priced, and inclusive of a lab component.

Thanks!!
how in the world are you going to do bio classes without a lab all online?
