I want to refresh myself on certain science courses, mainly microbiology, anatomy and physiology and wanted to see if anyone knew of a good on-line course, either through a community college, a 4-year college or a reputable on-line college. These courses do not need to be used for my transcripts as I am already accepted but would like to refresh myself and prepare for school this fall. I need something somewhat structured, I'm not good at just looking over my old coursework. Thanks for any serious reply!

First, you posted this same question in several other forums, a no-no, so I'm sure this will get moved or closed.
BUT, I am 99.9% sure everyone will tell you not to try and study/review anything before you start med school. Especially waste time and money signing up for, and taking, online courses. If you absolutely HAVE to do something get some review books. It's kinda like saying you're going to prepare to run a marathon by jogging a couple miles over the summer, all said and done it's probably not going to be THAT helpful.

While I am not against online classes in general, micro and anatomy both NEED to have a lab. No way that these classes can be done justice in an online session. Physio may be ok, but I don't know of any places that have an online class right now.
