Hello,
I was a bit confused on which of my undergrad General/Ochem courses will be considered "fulfilled" for applying to Veterinary School. I went to UCLA, and I have already graduated, but unfortunately, I received a C- in the Ochem lab portion (14CL), so I wish to re-take it ASAP. It is to my knowledge that most vet schools require a full year of General Chemistry AND a full year of Organic Chemistry. Please correct me if I'm wrong.
The chemistry classes I took at UCLA were as follows:
1) 14 A Atomic and Molecular Structure, Equilibria, Acids, and Bases. (4 qtr units)
2) 14B Thermodynamics, Electrochemistry, Kinetics, and Organic Chemistry. (4 qtr units)
3) 14BL (Lab) General and Organic Chemistry Laboratory I. (3 qtr units)
4) 14C Structure of Organic Molecules. (4 qtr units)
5) 14CL (Lab) General and Organic Chemistry Laboratory II. (4 qtr units)
Total of: 19 qtr units completed
****14D Organic Reactions and Pharmaceuticals. (4 qtr units) was the last of the series, but it wasn't needed for my major in order to graduate, so I didn't take it.
I believe 14A, 14B, and 14BL fulfill the full year of Gen Chem. 14 C, 14 CL, 14 D would fulfill the full year of Ochem.
My main concern: I know I have to definitely take the last Ochem, and I have to re-take the lab, however, most places do not offer the lab alone, so should I just retake the entire series? Please help!!
