Greetings to all! I wanted to know if taking a chemistry pre college course online would look bad on a college resume. It is a pre-req course that i need to take to receive credit to be able to enroll in general chemistry 1. I did not do well in high school and i need to take it. I am currently at a community college. Please give advice i really want to hear from you all

If its a a pre-college course, why would it be on your resume? It is remedial course that will be on your college transcript?
Since you have to have general chem as a med school prereq, it would seem you have no choice but to take the pre-chem online
The pre-chem isnt a prereq so it really doesnt matter to med schools

So as long I take my prerequisites (gen chem 1 and 2, etc)in person i should be fine? What about some electives like sociology and humanities

Yes you'll be fine ( the premed neurosis is strong in this one)

Thabk you! And dont woery i will be fine

Some med schools have sociology or humanities as pre reqs and might not allow online courses. All dependent on the med school.

It is not a problem to take a pre-requisite course. As with most things, always be prepared to answer the question "Why?" if asked. An answer such as desiring a good foundation is perfectly acceptable.
