would it hurt to not have had anatomy & physiology before med school or post bac? i have had A&P I but im wondering if not taking A&P II would be a bad choice before starting post bac this fall....

thanks.

If you mean undergrad post-bacc, then I'm confused. most schools require basic bio, chem and maybe even orgo before taking physiology.

Anatomy is useless except for the MCAT, though it will help give you some prep before med school. A rigorous physiology course helps both on the MCAT and for med school. However, in terms of completing post-bacc course requirements, neither course will help

sorry for not being clear...
i was not referring to taking the MCAT. i will be attending lecom post bac this fall, and was just wondering if not talking A&P II will make it difficult to do well in the program, or in med school.
