What are the pre-med requirements?
A#7: “Pre-Med” is NOT a concentration, but is a set of course requirements,* dictated by and agreed upon by most medical schools. As an undergraduate, you can concentrate in ANYTHING, and ALSO fulfill pre-health careers coursework. If you happen to choose one of the biological sciences programs, you will find that some of these courses form part of your concentration program. For more details, please refer to the Summary Flyer available at the Health Careers Office, or the website: http://www.brown.edu/Administration/Dean_of_the_College/hco/ *In general, these are the pre-health careers requirements: CHEM 0330, 0350, 0360; PHYS 0030, 0040; at least one semester of calculus (MATH 0090; sometimes 0100 as well); and two-four biology courses, (two of which must have laboratory); two English courses. Some vet schools add biochemistry and/or microbiology to this list.
