Does anybody have a list of schools that won't consider you without completion of this requirement? I believe most schools are fine with it as long as you complete the classes before matriculation. I've read about a couple that refused secondaries though without it (MSUCOM) though.
 
.....most schools don't have a behavioral science requirement. Go to their websites and look up the prereqs, compile a list.
 
Yeah I know. I was just seeing if anybody knew of the ones that do have it, require it before applying

MSUCOM still accepted my secondary last year, with the condition that the course is completed before matriculation. Why wouldn't they? If you apply while still in college they'd have to allow it. My case was the behavior ones I took for GEs or whatever didn't fit into what they considered valid. Either way, take it at a CC if you decide on that school.
 
touro-ny does.

But seriously, just decide which schools you want to apply to and then check their website. You are prob applying to no more than 10-12 DO schools. 10-12 websites. 15 min tops.
