Hello Everyone,
I am dealing with bit of a dilemma. I have already recieved my bachelors, I need pre req for med school. I was thinking of re- enrolling in a second bachelor to get my pre- req for ed school, then not finishing the degree and apply to med school? The reason for me doing this instead of non degree is that second degree offers finiacial aid. Is this an effective way to get my pre req and how does it look to med school admission.? Also by the way, I would have just taken all courses at cc but they do not offer biochem. Thanks
 
Whatever allows you to get the classes and pay for them. Adcoms don’t care if you get a second degree or not—just be sure to reel in As!
