online courses???

Published

I just registered for the fall semester, and the only section of A&P that was still open is an online course. I've never taken one of those before - the first time I went to college they didn't exist yet. Has anyone taken A&P online? They will meet periodically throughout the semester, dates and times still TBA, and I am assuming we will have to come in for labs...I'm just nervous about having to learn only from a book or my screen. Should I keep trying to get into the lecture course? Or I thought too that if I was having trouble I could sit in on the class and no one would probably notice (150 ish students). Please advise! Thank you!

If you can teach yourself information and are very good with time management, you should be fine. Otherwise, a "ground" course is a better option. Good luck. ;)

if you have very little problem reading something then applying what you learned, then you probably won't have problems. Online is not for everyone, but it certainly can be a wonderful thing.

Also if you are a fast learner and sitting in a class where you have to go back over stuff for others drives you nuts, then online is also a good option LOL.

UNforunately, I don't think my school offers A&P online yet.

Thanks guys, if anyone else has any input I'd still appreciate it. I think it might be alright for me though.
