What are the similarities and differences between the pre-med reqs and medical school classes?
I'm not asking about the level of difficulty, but how do the pre-reqs transfer over and are applied to medical school knowledge.

- Are the classes similar? It seems like pre-med just is the foundation for knowledge for higher level science.
- If you dislike physics, will it haunt you in med school?
- Are the labs similar. Is there even a lab component in med school?
- Do the labs from pre-reqs really prepare you for any type of lab components in medical school? (I hate labs - they're so boring in my opinion)
- If you hate pre-med labs, will you hate med school labs?
- How often do you use knowledge obtained from bio, chem, o chem, & physics in medical school?
- How often are mathematical equations used?
- Are med classes more memorization or conceptual thinking? Which courses are memorization... which ones are conceptual?
- [for current or past medical students]: What is/was your favorite med school course?
