I keep getting mixed feedback about the prerequistes (not requirements but I actually need to understand it) for biostatistics. I have been told that college algebra is fine if you understand statistics. I have heard it is impossible to do without calculus. I have heard that precalculus is fine.
I have only had college algebra and social science statistics classes. I could take pre-calc this summer at a community college but I would rather continue working right until I start classes since I will not be making any money once I start school!
I would appreciate any input. I am also curious about epidemiology. is college biology sufficient?
Oh, I am obviously not going into biostats or epi. I am looking at health policy or communty health education.
Again, this isn't a question about what I would need to be accepted but rather what is going to help me succeed in these classes.
Thank you!
