I just graduated college and I want to take some time off before applying to dental school (1-2 years). I'm looking for a job as a research assistant but I'm also interested in taking a few more science classes. I would like to take an Anatomy course this summer (my school didn't have one), but I'm wondering if I can take it online through a four year school and not have it look bad for dental school? I figured if I take it online and I land a job this summer (I have two interviews so far), I could still work this summer and take the class. But would an online class like Anatomy not be taken as seriously by the schools?

Thanks! 🙂
 
Online Anatomy? Where's the fun in that? Half the experience is the smell of your clothes after walking out of lab! =)

I wouldn't mind taking it in a traditional classroom setting since hands on experience is always a plus. However I don't want to have to drop the class if I get a job and have to move. That's why I thought a virtual class would be a better option. I just wanted opinions about that
