Jchen14 Posted December 29, 2017 Share Posted December 29, 2017 Hi guys, I've been google searching to no avail regarding where I can take a genetics course online. I am aware that UNE offers an online genetics course, but I would rather NOT take genetics at UNE if possible. Can anyone recommend a university where I can take genetics 100% online? I am working full-time, studying to retake the GRE, and taking biochemistry (repeat course) online concurrently which is why I need to take genetics strictly online. Thank you everyone for the help in advance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How was biochem through Berkeley? How many hours did you put into it? Was it hard? I've never taken a rigorous online course before. Thank you so much!

I've never taken a rigorous online course before. Thank you so much!It was good & it was hard. I did put in a lot of hours, however, I can’t really quantify that as it’s been a few years ago now & I was taking other prerequisites at the same time. I’m full time in PA school now so I guess it worked out ok. In all honesty- I had a Prof w/ a little bit of a language barrier (all of our communication was written), which was where most of my challenge was. Check www.ratemyprofessor.com before taking the final plunge. Good luck!Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I took it and it was fairly easy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking into genetics at Metropolitan Community and came across this thread. Couldn't even find the online genetics class information on their website for USC.

Jchen14 Posted April 26, 2018 Author Share Posted April 26, 2018 I am officially registered for the course! It's only like 3 weeks which is insane. I'm a little nervous for the class to start. It's quite a bit of money since I'm out of state but it's the last class I need.Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nikki386 Posted April 27, 2018 Share Posted April 27, 2018 I need genetics online too. I wish I saw this thread sooner! How do I find more information about the USC Maymester courses? I can't find anything.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nikki386 Posted April 27, 2018 Share Posted April 27, 2018 As soon as possible. I was planning to apply June/July, and really didn't want to have this one class in progress. But if it comes to that, I guess there isn't much I can do. UC Berkeley seems like a good alternative. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Penn state berks is offering an online genetics class that is from may to june. That was my back up in case the class at USC upstate was full. Look up the class on lionpath.

Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using Tapatalk Glad you were able to get set up for this class! It is really very doable. There are assignments every day, but nothing overwhelming. I got an A with only a couple of hours a day worth of work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GabeO Posted April 27, 2018 Share Posted April 27, 2018 I took genetics online at Oakton Community College. They did not charge out of state tuition and allowed you to make payments. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The course prefix is BTC (biotechnology), but the content is exactly the same as the BIO 250. It was a decent class. Just like every other online course, you'll get out of it what you put into it.
