Just wondering how it looks to take some science classes online. I already completed all my pre-req courses in class. I saw that some people said it would be a red flag for your application or that it makes you look like a less competitive applicant. But does taking one online science course really do that much damage?

If it is just one class, then it probably will not matter (speculation-- i am not an adcom). Also, If it is through your same University that you took all of your other classes in, it might not even show up on your transcript or primary application as a web-based class (but it could based on your school).



but i dont think you should take a science class online just because you think it is easier. ( just my two cents)
