I graduated in 2001 with a BA in Pscyh. I am working out the details on how I can get my pre-reqs or into a post bacc. Currently I work fulltime but I am hoping to either move with a new job and take pre-reqs at UCLA or go full force into a post-bacc.

In the meantime, I'd like to take some classes online just to get me back into the swing of things. What do others recommend? I am thinking maybe some math (it's been 7 years of course.. heh), Spanish, maybe medical terminology? Any ideas welcome? I also know to add some volunteering and shadowing in the meantime as well.

Thanks!

I personally would stay away from online offerings.
 
If you haven't done much math (as you indicated), I would review some college-level algebra or pre-calculus. I've seen a few non-trads doing poorly in some of the pre-reqs, not because they didn't understand the material but they were rusty on basic algebra. As Law2Doc stated, I would also stay away from online courses.

Good luck.
