Anyone have any idea how medical schools view post baccalaureate programs? I've decided to hang back a little with my pre-med requirements as I do something that interests me (I'm non-traditional, Screen Writing). I plan to fulfill my requirements for this major and move on to my med school requirements after I graduate.
In terms of mathematics, I've always been incredibly weak. Science is not my strong suit because of this fact. I love biology but when it intermingles with heavy chemistry I choke up on the application of math. I fear for my GPA so I've decided to take science courses at the community college near me during the summer and winter breaks at my school (Hofstra University). This way, I can prepare myself for my time as a post-bac student when I take them at a 4-year university. I also plan on fulfilling my math requirements at community college. If I were to take extra courses at my community college, would medical schools see that I have done that? Would they factor in the GPA I've received there? Thanks a bunch guys.
