hey everyone,
So I am applying for the fall of 2010 and have been a little confused with some of the optometry school's general biology requirements.
Most schools say something along the lines of general biology or zoology with appropriate labs (4 quarters or 2 semesters).
I graduated as a Biology major and have taken microbiology w/lab, molecular biology w/ lab, experimental biology w/ lab, human anatomy w/ lab, and physiology w/ lab. I know for some schools they require microbiology, anatomy, and physiology as its own separate prerequisite. My question is for schools like scco and berkeley: Do I need to take 1 full year's worth of general biology lab on top of the micro, anatomy, and physio requirement?? Or are my requirements so far good enough to apply?
And for Berkeley, I know they require 1 full year of calculus. If I placed out of a calculus class because of my AP test: Do have to re-take that lower division calculus even though I passed a calculus course higher in the series?
I'd love to hear everyone's feedback thank you so much.
sorry for such a long post
