Wow. I know not everyone likes chemistry, but it could be worth putting up with for UMPI.

It doesn't sound like awful labs. It's a simulator so no one has to mix actual chemicals up. That always made me nervous in school. I was worried I'd blow myself up.

Or kill yourself.

Mixing ammonia and bleach (common household chemicals) will make a deadly gas that can kill you.

Someone test drive the Chemistry Lab course yet? Is it true that the Labster fee is included in the course? If so, that's $69 off! Labster first started offering labs at $40 I recall, then bumped it up to $50, and now at $69. I mean, if you get the Labster fee paid for the Chemistry course, that's an amazing deal... I don't know if anyone confirmed this or if it's just speculation. OMG, speaking of 'deadly gas', I remember way back in high school, we were making the rotten egg smell bombs, haha, the good old days... that's H2S for those who didn't know.

Just to clarify, that Rachel is not me. I do not work for Sophia. 

I wish!  Big Grin

Has anyone confirmed that this lab transfers into UMPI? I asked Jessica while I was enrolling for Spring but she addressed my other questions and didn't answer that one. I only have, like, 5 classes left, and the science lab is one of them. I would love to knock it out in the month before spring term.
