Study.com - Biology 101 vs Biology 101L - allvia - 12-05-2018
Inquiring for a friend who needs a prerequisite of Intro to Biology, and it has already been confirmed that the school will take ACE. My Study.com account is no longer active so I can't login anymore to get beyond the general public page.
My question is there a difference between the two Study.com Biology 101: Intro to Biology and the Biology 101L: Intro to Biology with Lab.
I'm assuming that the only difference between the two is the Lab portion - is it a virtual Lab?
Is there an extra cost to taking the one with the Lab vs the one without the Lab?

Yep. The lab version is recommended for 4 credits instead of 3 credits. It is a virtual lab using the labster platform. I believe it costs you $39 to access the virtual labs, so it's the cheapest lab option I know of.

Oh you're correct, $40 it is for the Lab (3 month access) - I dug a little deeper and found it the info here: https://study.com/academy/lesson/biology-101l-lab-syllabus-information.html
Thank you!
