Yes I've taken some. No, no issues this far. Sitting on 2 Acceptances and 6 interview invites.
Did any of the schools you applied to say they don’t accept online courses?

Let's see... (Sorry if formatting is weird, on mobile)
Looking at MSAR, of my 6 IIs:
- 3 schools say online courses "Accepted" (my 2 As are at these types of schools)
- 1 (T20) school says "case-by-case"
- 1 (T20) school doesn't have specific "requirements" (just recommendations) and left that section of MSAR blank
- 1 school doesn't accept online coursework, but I withdrew my application after receiving an A at a school I liked more, so I don't know what that would look like after I had interviewed.

Did you take the Lab portions of the courses online there as well? At least for GChem and Bio, as I don't see OChem or Physics having Lab options. If so, how was having to do them at home with the lab kit?
I did not. I did do an online Microbio class (combined lec & lab) thru a different school, and found the at-home lab fine.
Caveat for all of this - I'm a non-trad career-changer, so YMMV.
I’m doing the gchem at home lab in this upcoming quarter, so I can let you know in a few months!
