online prereqs

Published

My current school offers very limited courses for what one would need for nursing. I am currently taking A&P I, but it doesn't come with lab, nor does the school offer A&P II OR chemistry...ridiculous.

Can anyone rec a great distance education program for the following courses:

A&P II with lab, organic chem, inorganic chem

I took all my RN prereqs through them, including Microbiology and both A&P classes. What not so good things have you heard about them? I had no problems or issues. That was almost ten years ago, though.

on here I read that the way the classes are designed are not good for the student, that you basically teach yourself. and that they are also very hard compared to say, arizona community college.

I didn't find that to be the case but I'm a pretty independent learner, so maybe others found it to be more challenging than I did.
