Need advice about problem concerning classes

I feel terribly sick to my stomach. I signed up for an Organic chemistry lecture online that was offered by my local college (only one in the area for 50 miles). The lectures online, but lab is unseat. I've been reading that pharmacy schools don't really care for online courses, but the class wouldn't be offered during the term until next term at another college, I was planning on attending. Now I feel like all my work is going down the drain for actually taking the class. I have no idea what to do now. Should I just retake the lecture portion again over next term in seat? That way can fix this error?

What would you do if you were me? Wouldn't the adcom's just find it strange I retook the course even though I'm managing with A's? Any advice would be appreciated.*

I also thought about applying to Michigan, Ferris State, and maybe Kentucky. I'm not quite sure yet if this helps any with my concern.

Do those schools explicitly say they do not accept online classes?

Not that I know of. I only checked the website over a dozen times, looking for anything that would say something about it, but didn't see anything. I saw a few schools like Wisconsin and South Carolina said something on their website about online pre-reqs.


Should I contact the schools by email and ask?*

I thought the main 'problem' w/ online science classes was that there was no in-person lab...but your situation is different so you should probably contact the schools you want to apply to.

Definitely contact them directly and explain that your labs are in person. I think there are only a few schools that state no online science courses are accepted. But as the above poster suggests, your situation might be different anyway because your labs are in person.

Thank-you guys. I have emailed the school and they seemed okay with it. I had to submit a copy of the syllabus and of the in-lab syllabus. They said it was fine because it came up as the same class they have at another sister college of the one I'm at. It's all part of a college system or something here in my state. I'm saved! 😍
