hey all,

My university offers an online class, based on lectures recorded from the previous semester over the summer. The class is an upper division BIO, however it is not a pre-req or a "required class" by dental schools. Do you guys think this would look bad to dental schools?

thanks guys

I took an online class (which was a pre-req) and tested out of another class for a grade (so I could have enough credits to graduate without having to do another semester). Never caused a problem at all.
 
I'm taking two online classes, and both are pre-req's. The dental school told me it was perfectly ok.
