I currently just transferred as a sophomore from a junior college with 56 credit hours. The sciences I took there were my first 2 BIOL courses with labs, first 2 CHEM courses with labs and my first organic chem with lab. I took it there because I was on scholarships. Now I am currently in organic chem 2 with lab at the 4 yr. This summer I can take my first PHYS course (10 weeks) at the 4 yr university I currently attend or I can take it at a junior college (4 weeks) and also get an EMT certification. My pre-med advisor said I shouldn't take any more sciences at a junior college but my GPA isn't a 4.0 and I think the EMT will make me stand out and I really want to do it. It has always been something I have wanted to do, and if I can get a head start with saving lives, it's worth it to me. BUT is it worth sacrificing one more science at a 4 yr university? If I take it at the junior college, I will have almost over half of my sciences from them and I am concerned that this will weaken my app a lot. Thanks!!
