    How important are pre req grades?

    So I have a pretty average gpa for DO schools: cumulative: 3.51, science: 3.36, but most of my prereqs just barely make it. I used easy science courses to inflate my gpa. If I do decently well on mcat (510+) will I still be competitive? Or do my poor grades in pre reqs keep me from being...

    Biochem replacing Orgo 2

    I know there was a post about this years ago, but I thought things would've changed since then. Is there a list of DO schools that lets you replace orgo 2 with biochem? It would make my life much happier and I wouldn't have to pay for extra credit hours senior year.
