BSc (Hons) Biology with the OU

What is the course like? Is it respected? Will universities accept it if I want to go on to a more 'traditional' university course? Thanks

I am currently in year 2 doing BSc Biology with OU, and it's nothing but fun !! All the materials and modules are online, with lots of interactive contents, with the online OU laboratory. The studies are quite flexible, and you can choose to do part-time or full-time.
BSc Biology in OU has been 'awarded interim accreditation by the Royal Society of Biology.' I have read that lots of alumni have successfully moved on to postgraduate studies in many prestigious universities, and even on to the STP programme.

Hope this helps

Hey, sorry to jump in and steer away from the thread slightly, but I was wondering if you could explain a little more about your experience with the OU lab? OU would be a perfect fit for myself to do a biology degree (I have already studied another degree with the OU prior, not science), but I am slightly worried about not getting "practical" experience as I would in a brick university
