Do I absolutely need to take 2 semesters of Inorganic Chemistry with lab and 2 semesters of Organic Chemistry with lab? What if I have taken chemical engineering courses instead?
Our requirements for science courses are in place because we want to be sure you have the foundation of chemistry, biology, and physics that you will need as you begin medical school. Even though an advisor or counselor tells you that you “have” to have a particular course, our viewpoint on the issue is perhaps more flexible. It is the content that is important to us. Because most students apply to more than one medical school, it is usually best to take the full two semesters of Inorganic Chemistry, two of Organic Chemistry, and two of Physics. Actual credit hours may vary somewhat depending on the school offerings. However, you may have a particular situation that warrants interpretation by the Admissions Office–feel free to call us to consult.
