I don't know of any exams that could be combined with a lab- I was thinking of actual online classes w/ labs. They can be tough to find, but they're out there.
I am currently taking a microbiology class w/ lab online through my local CC. This summer I will be taking an UL genetics class w/ lab online through the university. I chose these because I qualify for in-state tuition, but I found quite a few schools offering online labs during my search.
Just a few examples:
Oregon State University: Chemistry w/ Lab
Ecatalog Subject List -- Schedule of Classes -- Oregon State University -- Extended Campus -- Ecampus
OSU is great because they don't have out-of-state tuition fees for their online classes- just one price per credit.
Here's a list of lab courses with the Community College of Denver:
Online Courses with Labs
Excelsior has a 1 credit biology lab option for anyone just looking for a lab without the class. https://www.excelsior.edu/Excelsior_Coll...ge_Courses
I had the most success finding online lab options by checking with individual schools, rather than doing a basic Google search. In some cases, I didn't realize the classes had a lab component until I read the course description.
