Hi everyone, I’m sure this has been discussed already but I couldn’t find anything that really answered my question. If has been discussed please send a link. But my question is, now that we’re coming out of covid and med schools are returning to their normal standards for prerequisite, is taking online or hybrid courses pointless now?
My situation is that I work full time and have a family to support like a lot of people on here. I already have a bachelors but I’ve been taking classes at my CC for classes I need. All of the science classes are hybrid, we meet twice a week for lecture, lab, tests but there is still online work for reading to do. Also, for some of the higher classes like organic chem and biochemistry aren’t offered. I was able to find organic chem at a university that’s about 30 minutes away but they meet MWF for class in the morning and 3 hours usually 2-5pm for lab on either M-T-Th. Which doesn’t sound feasible with work but I’m willing to ask. There is also another community college about an hour away that offers the same class on MW from 6pm-8ish but it’s also a hybrid course. I’ve seen others have success with taking classes online or taking them online with UNE.
Given how things seem to be going back to normal does it make more sense to stress about trying to take these classes in person even if they are hybrid? Or are people still having good experiences with schools accepting online courses for organic chem and such?
