I am taking anatomy this semester for my pre-pharmacy coursework but I was just wondering whether I can just take BIO-272 (Comparative vertebrate anatomy and physiology with lab) instead of kinesiology-251 (Human Physiological anatomy)?

I go to UIC, and if you read the outline they have both on UIC Pre-Pharmacy Undergrad program and PharmCAS, they specifically specify Human Physiological Anatomy I/II. However, it doesn't hurt to call and ask UIC Pharmacy, and as long as you are persistent and keeping up with class, KN 251 is not HARD! Good Luck.
 
Bios 272 does not count!

You must take the MVSC 251/252 sequence. I believe they renamed it to KN 251/252. KN 251 is held only in the fall and 252 is held only in the spring. There is a waiting list for KN 251 every year

Actually, it was originally kinesiology 251/2, and then they changed the name to mvsc in 2004. I guess AHS decided to revert to the original name.
 
i go to uic too! i'm planning to take anatomy next year with biochem... is that recommended? I think i read somewhere on this forum that they are kind of similar, in a way, but i can't find that post 🙁
 
As long as you don't have Nickels for biochem...

A&P at UIC is pretty brutal, took the 251/2 last year, you really don't want to pair it with hard classes =|

so i went to a biochem adviser last semester and we planned out what/when to take classes and for next fall i have A&P, Biochem and analytical. which is all 13 hrs. and that is ALL i'm taking. do u think that's too much? or will I be fine since i'm only talking 3 courses.

Hey, i'm graduating as a biochem major at UIC this May and also got accepted into UIC CoP. Anyway, a&p 1 is really not that bad. And biochem 1 with Miller was fairly easy. However, it seems like you will end up taking a&p2 and biochem2 together in the Spring..that semester will be fairly difficult. So if you're thinking of possibly taking an additional "easy" class, you should definitely do it in the Fall semester. Hope that helps !

Hi im a senior in high school wanting to apply to UIC as a Chemistry BS major and pre-pharmacy.

I was just confused how exactly that worked? majoring in Chem and pre-pharmacy?

and can you help me out if i can get accepted?

GPA(unweighted): 3.4
ACT: 33
SAT2 Chem: 680
SAT2 Math: 780

Sorry for so many questions but i really need to know fast. x) one last question is the application process.

I was looking at the application online for fall 2012, and i couldn't find anywhere to put my test scores in such as the ACT, SAT2, or even my high school GPA and extra curricular activities. Where do i put all that information?

Thank you so much!!
