Is it okay to take premed prerequisites over the summer?

So this summer I was considering taking calculus 1 over the summer. Due to corona, this class will be online but it will be offered by the college that I attend. Will it look bad if I take it over the summer as opposed to next semester? Should I take another course or not bother with it?
I’m trying to do this to lighten the load for next semester and in general.

Calc isn't a prereq for most med schools.

It also won't look bad to take it online.

Piggybacking off of that; I was thinking about taking physics online this summer due to changes in my study abroad for next year. I was wondering if they would be more flexible with this due to COVID, or if I should really try to take physics in person.

You should really try to take physics in person.
