Hi, I'm wondering how bad it is to take prereqs at outside institutions? Summer of 2020 my summer internship got canceled so I took classes online. I simultaneously took chem 1 and 2 from my university and took physics 1 and 2 with lab at an outside university (my state university which is NOT a cc). I mainly took it at my state university 1) because my uni wasn't offering physics over the summer 2) because it was a lot cheaper to take summer classes at my state university and 3) taking these courses over the summer would allow me to graduate earlier (which i'm doing for financial reasons). I'm wondering how much of a red flag to adcoms it may be that I took physics 1 and 2 with lab at a university much less rigorous than the one I'm graduating from. I still got A's in it while also getting A's in my chemistry classes that summer. I'm worried they'll see it as "taking the easy way out" which would suck since I did it for financial reasons and also because it certainly did not feel "easy" to take 14 credits of summer classes in the span of 2 months.
Any thoughts would be appreciated though, thanks!
