Hello folks,
I am running into a bit of an issue. My university splits Biochemistry into two courses, Metabolism and Macromolecules. I have given the course descriptions below. Which one of these would be preferable to take pre-MCAT, if only one had to be picked? Trying my best to not have to stay another semester for one class of Biochemistry. Thanks in advance.
Macromolecules: Topics include cellular organization: pH and buffering. energy changes in molecular interactions. structure and characteristics of amino acids and proteins, structure/function relationships of enzymes, carbohydrates, lipids, and studies of the production, structure, and function of nucleic acids.
Metabolism: The metabolism of carbohydrates, lipids, amino acids, and nucleotides will be covered with emphasis on reactions, enzymes, energy changes, pathway regulation, and pathway integration. Production of energy-rich molecules in the cell will be linked to important cellular functions (i.e., biosynthesis, movement, and transport).
