I'm taking the second course in my school's one-year general biology sequence (first semester dna to organisms, second semester organisms to ecosystems). For next year I'll be taking genetics and evolution in the fall, and cell/molecular bio in spring.
This summer I will be out of the country for about a month, and so I can't take any regular classroom courses. I was thinking, though, of taking an online Bio 1 class. It's the most basic Bio class in my school and it's gen ed, basically an overview of the topics I'll be learning in all four courses mentioned above. I'm not taking any science classes over the summer, just some online humanities ones (because I'll be away for a while), and I'm thinking taking Bio 1 will help me retain the material from my gen bio classes, and give me a bit of a headstart with the material for the next bio courses I'll be taking.
The thing is, though, that the general bio sequence at my school is numbered as 93 and 94. Dya guys think taking Bio 1 after taking 93/94 is gonna look bad, like I'm just boosting my GPA or something? I really don't care about the GPA boost, I really just want to have a bio class in what looks to be a summer full of writing papers and stuff.
