Hello:

I recently completed an online undergraduate math course/distance learning course (College Algebra) from an accredited university. Will AMCAS accept this course? Do schools frown on online courses? Btw, my remaining courses were done at a 4 year college, and I did this to sharpen my math skills for the MCAT plus to help me meet the Math requirement at some schools. I have a semester of Calc., but some schools require more than one semester of math. Thanks.

Whoa, you have a semester of Calc and you took College Algebra afterwards? Isn't that below pre-calc even and Trig? Why would you do that? You satisfied the math requirement, technically, but taking a Calc class then going back to take something like College Algebra probably doesn't look the best. I think you're fine as far as the online course goes. I hope you got an A!
