biochemistry

Hi everyone! I am in a bit of a jam regarding taking biochemistry. I am starting my junior year and was unable to get into the biochemistry class (only 24 students allowed). Biochemistry I is only offered in the fall and I will be going abroad next fall so I really got screwed. I am trying to...

Hi Everyone: I am in Western Governors University's Bachelor of Science in Nursing Prelicensure Program. I love it, but I don't know what or if I want to pursue a different career later on. I took an online 3 credit Biochemistry class with no lab at WGU as a part of my BSN Prelicensure...

I am currently a rising senior undergrad (will be taking a gap year after college, aka applying in 2019). I was planning on taking my MCAT in early September, however, I am worried that I will not be prepared enough. I have been studying this summer, but due to some unforeseen circumstances have...

I was wondering why histidine < lysine < arginine are in this order of increasing basicity, if histidine has a more stable conjugate acid (protonated form) due to resonance?

I have been searching SDN for a while but cannot find any solid info/reviews of the Tulane MS Biochemistry program! Does anyone have any information on this program?

Hey guys, I'm just looking for a good resource for studying biochem... Any suggestions?

Does anyone know if admissions committees give preference in admission to people who have taken the "optional prerequisites" (Bichem, Microbio, Anat and Physio) for their school? I'm especially curious about the impact on applicants to SUNY Optometry. I have a some time before application and...

Hello everyone! I am going to be a Junior in the Fall and will be taking Biochem I. At the college I attend, Biochem I is one of the toughest classes haha. I was wondering what advice you guys have for studying Biochem? Those of you that did well in it, what should I go in expecting? Lots of...

I'm a 2nd semester senior already planning on applying to mainly lower-tier and DO schools, pending my MCAT scores. I'm an ORM. I have a 3.67 as it stands. I'll have 600+ clinical hours as well as 200+ hospital and other volunteering by the time I apply. I'm currently looking for undergraduate...

I've taken biochem 1 at my university and received an A. I believe I have a pretty solid understanding of all the material in it. Should I take biochem 2 as well? Or would it be unnecessary? Any thoughts or opinions would be appreciated. Thanks.

***Please feel free to correct me on the timeline process*** I'm a senior high school trying to plan out my college/premed schedule to try to fit in all the prerequisites in 2 years (because MCAT has to be taken before junior year/early junior year + you spend the rest of the year building your...

I'll be taking the MCAT May of 2019 and I will be a senior this coming fall. I have a couple questions. I'm going to begin studying for the MCAT in January of 2019 since I will be in my last semester of school. My question: Would you guys think it would be better to take Biochemistry in my fall...

I noticed that a lot of dental schools only require one semester of biochem. Since it's part of the dental school curriculum, would it be helpful to take biochem II?

Since systems move from a low number number of states (lower entropy) to a high number of states (higher entropy)- following the second law of thermodynamics. How does the protein folding move from a high number of potential folding configurations to its theoretical local state follow the second...

Where would be the most reasonable place to take biochemistry as a non-trad? Many of the schools I'm planning on applying to require it. I did fine on the biochem section of my MCAT and I'm thinking I should just take it online right before applying. Any advice or suggestions for courses would...

I'm currently a freshman double majoring in Biochemistry (BA) and Music Performance (BM) and honestly I don't have any time at all to do anything, ever. I need more time because I commute (1.5hr commute one way) and I'm away from home roughly 14 hours a day, 3 times a week, and around 8-10 the...

So, my school only offers biochem 1 and 2 in certain semesters, and that pushes my mcat and applying timeline back a cycle atleast. Considering, I would need proper time to study. I found that my school offers a summer (May-July) monday-thursday in-person MCAT course by The Princeton Review and...

Is anyone aware of Dental Schools that do not require biochem as a prerequisite?!

I ended up with a bad lab partner in a 4-credit 400 level biochem class (through the tried and true method of pairing everyone with the person they sit next to on the first day!). We've had to redo every experiment so far because of mistakes she makes. I gave her the benefit of the doubt but I'm...

What is the ratio of the concentrations of base to acid at each of the following levels of dissociation of the acid (1, 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90, 99%), i.e. if the acid is 100 % dissociated (ionised) then all of the molecules are in the conjugate base form

Hi SDN, Throughout college, due to an illness, I never took a course load more than 13 units. Sometimes in a semester I took only 11 units. I am worried because I received great grades including an A in organic chemistry, A- in general biology and A in general chemistry. I believe I am smart...

hey guys! This is actually my first post haha. Anyways, I want to go to optometry school in the future, but I'm not sure which undergrad is most suited for it. My dream school has always been UCLA, but I've heard a lot about the cutthroat competition and grade deflation. Is it worth going there...

What do you wish you did differently in preparing for MCAT? Do you wish you dedicated more time? Less time? Used different resources? Reviewed more? Took more practice exams?

So unfortunately, I have already submitted a couple secondary applications before reading that these schools DO NOT accept online courses for pre-requisites (University of Miami Miller and John's Hopkins). All but one of my pre-reqs have been satisfied through AP or through in-person...

My Exam is in about a month and I'm averaging 503 on the practice Kaplan exams. This is only because I'm getting about 75% correct on CARS and P/S, but my C/P and B/B are always hovering around 50%. I went through a thorough content review and now I'm just doing practice problems, but no matter...

Hi everyone, This is something I have been struggling with ever since I found out I wont be taking biochem until my last semester. Heres the thing: next summer I will have finished all bio/chem/physics/A&P EXCEPT for biochem (and calc), which I will be taking fall 2018. Since I would already...

Hi all! I already took the MCAT and am looking to get rid of my study material. I have an MCAT Foundations of Biochemistry Self-Paced course (sold on Kaplan for $499) I also have the books from my in-person class (3rd edition), all the books that are untouched, besides the lesson book which...

Hello. I am applying to dental schools this year and most of them require biochemistry. During my undergrad years I was unabe to take biochemistry at my school. I have a community college near me that offers Intro to Biochemistry (CHM 260) If I take this course at the CC in person can it fulfill...

Colorado State University (CSU) Principles of Biochemistry (BC351)- BC 351 | Principles of Biochemistry - CSU Online I took this course the fall of 2015. Enough people have asked me about the course so I thought I would do this write up. I am a non-traditional student who took my pre-reqs...

Trying to build my schedule for next semester. Plan on taking DAT afterwards. Which class will be more beneficial for the DAT- Biochem or human phys?

Hi all, I plan on taking Cell Bio before the MCAT, for obvious reasons, but am not sure if it is as important to take as something like Biochemistry (I am taking the 2 semester Biochem I/II course). I just don't know if taking it in the Spring RIGHT before I take the MCAT would give enough...

Hi, everyone. I'm a post-bac and the prereqs I have left to take are Biochemistry, and Physics I & II. I already have an A on Calculus I so I could take calculus based Physics, but I hear that it is a rather tough class and algebra physics is just as good for the MCAT. If I take Biochemistry...

Hi guys, New to the forums but I've been lurking in the backround for a while! I had a question regarding a major called Cellular and Biomolecular engineering, which I am designing in the engineering school at my institution. The curriculum will draw from BioE, ChemE, and Biochemistry and...

Why does the liver use dietary amino acids in the well-fed state to produce energy and fatty acids in the fasting mode? I would think that both amino acids and fatty acids would be used in a well-fed state because if we ate food that is rich in fat it passes through the portal vein and can be...
