From what I can tell, yes it's included with your sophia cost.

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.

I just spoke with Rachel, Sophia's operations manager.

Labster is included.

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.
