I've been browsing specific MD schools' websites, and I found many have 'suggested' classes listed below the standard Pre-med course load. More than half of these schools suggest taking
1. Psych 101
2. Sociology 101
3. A statistics class
(Sometimes 4. Ethics)
As of now, I have not taken any of those classes. Also, based on schedule for the next year, I likely can only fit in 1 of those classes.
When a school's website mentions these classes as 'suggested' do they pretty much mean that these classes are required? Should I even bother applying to MD schools who list these 3 (or 4) classes on their page, despite not having taken them>?
Or do you all suggest taking a gap year where I take these classes at a local community college or a university that offers these classes to people already bearing a Bachelors degree.
