First (but probably not last) time poster. Background: Got a 3.6 ugpa in econ from a top state school, virtually no sciences, worked in the financial industry for 3 years and am now finishing up an econ master's that I find wholly uninteresting. Need a little clarification on prerequisite coursework:
I plan on going back to 4-year uni instead of CC per forum advice. How long (1 or 2 years?) does it realistically take to get in all the req's and other than the year of bio/chem/ochem/phys & math+Eng, what else is generally required by most schools? Are there good post-baccalaureate/feeder programs for newbies like there are for med? I read on the forum that someone got in without all of the prereqs- is that possible/common?
How long would I expect volunteer/application/DAT study time to be and can I skip on significant volunteering without a huge ding?
With my background if I can do decently in pre-requisites and get 19 on DAT (I've always been above average on standardized tests), can I reasonably get into simply A school?
