Is it true that biochemistry I is only required as a prerequisite for medical school? Meaning I do not have to take biochemistry II to get into medical school?

In general, yes, subject to the content of the course. This should be the case for the MCAT as well. Correct me if there exist medical schools that require 2 semesters of biochemistry on top of the gen chem/org chem requirements.

For schools that offer a 2-semester sequence, the first semester is typically structure & function of biomolecules, likely including enzyme kinetics, and the second semester is typically metabolism.
It's not a hard and fast rule. But that second semester is a lot of useful stuff for the MCAT.
