Bio degree

Hello everyone,

I'm going to be working my way into a rigorous bio schedule as I'm a late entering bio major.

On the school's website, I found that cellular/molecular specialization course reqs to differ minimally from that of the general bio degree.

The differences? From my gatherings, it appears as if the specialized degree is simply three additional courses (biochemistry, calculus I, and molecular biology).

I figured I could take these extra courses and receive a specialized degree rather than a general bio, and I assumed these added courses may show up in some part of the MCAT. And a medical school may perceive this as more unique?

Thanks for any advice in advance.

I would do it if you can handle it. Biochem and molec. bio will definitely help.

But if taking these courses makes it so you cant participate in meaningful EC's then don't bother.

Thanks for the feedback. I no longer work during school which allows me spare time for ECs.
