Online courses for pre-reqs

How are these viewed generally before adcoms? Does anyone know of any easy program , non-CC, where you can get these out of the way as a non degree student?

Many (most?) medical schools specifically say that online courses will not be accepted for pre-reqs. Please consult the MSAR for the policies of specific schools.

Most secondaries now ask if you have taken any online coursework and ask you to explain why.
