Can people who are interested in pursuing life science majors participate in IMPS? Is IMPS worthwhile for a premed?
Potential biology or biochemistry majors and premedical students are welcome in IMPS. Medical schools require two terms of physics and at least one term of mathematics, so IMPS will help with your premed requirements. However, IMPS is scheduled at the same time as the introductory biology courses (Biology 14, 15, and 16), some of which are usually taken in the first year. If you do take IMPS, you can take Biology 15 or 16 in the spring term; if you have a score of 5 on the AP chemistry test, you may also take Chemistry 6 in the spring term. Alternatively, you may take IMPS during your sophomore year. During Orientation Week, you will have opportunities to meet with biology faculty and the premedical advisors to discuss these options.
