Hybrid Courses

Hello! I dug through a few old threads but couldn't really find the answer I was looking for, so I apologize if this is a redundant thread.

I'm going to community college full time right now after separating from the Air Force where I'm working on my first bachelors (planning on transferring to the local state school in the fall). I've run into a bit of an issue however, and I'd like some advice.

I'm currently taking physics I, and I was planning on taking organic chem I and physics II along with some of my major's requirements this coming spring. My school just posted the schedule today however, and there is only one organic chem class and two physics classes being offered. One of the physics classes is at the same time as the organic, and the remaining physics class is a hybrid course (lecture online, lab/exams in person).

My question is, would the hybrid physics course be frowned upon by medical schools?

Should I forgo organic chem until I transfer to the four year university?

Depending on how the schools document it in transcripts they might not even know. The online classes I have are from state universities and they just show up as regular classes on my transcript.

Now if your transcript is from one of the well know for profit schools, you might have a problem.

School websites and the MSAR might list how the adcoms there feel about online classes. One hybrid class for scheduling reasons might not be a big deal and it's good the labs are in person. Do you think you can be successful in that format is the other concern you need to have.
