science classes

Hey everyone, I'm a non-traditional applicant. I'm in my mid-20's and was an Army medic before college. I currently work in an ED. I have a ~3.8 overall GPA and a ~3.6 science GPA. I have several thousand hours of patient care experience in a variety of settings. I'm also a political science...

Maybe this sounds as a stupid question, however, I am confused. First I thought, they count the science GPA based on the classes they require you to take before coming to med schools such as general chem, Ochem, bio, stats, and etc. However, if someone is doing a biochemistry undergrad, and...

I'm interested in taking a course in my school called Selected Topics In Biology. The course description says that the course will study a topic of interest chosen by the instructor. The course topic is neurobiology. If I take this course, will the grade be counted towards my science gpa or just...

Hi everyone. The OT schools I applied to do not require Physics as a pre-req for the program. However, it is a recommended course for one of the schools. I have never taken physics and math is not a subject I am good at all. I have take pre-calc many years ago. NOTE: I have done pretty well in...

Hi. Currently, I am about to finish my senior year at the University of Southern California. I entered undergraduate as pre-med and completed some of the requirements. However, after my first semester of sophomore year I realized that I might not be cut out for it, and that maybe that wasn't...

I've been reading through the classes to take on many dental school websites, and a lot of them state that to be competitive you should have advanced science courses such as Anatomy, Physiology, Genetics, Histoloy, Evolution etc... I was wondering if other upper level science classes also count...
