I plan on taking math 1324 (TX), Mathematics for Business and Social Sciences. Is this a good math course for getting into medical school and will it satisfy the math pre-req? Or is business calc more desirable? I know some people who got into med school who never took calc in college and I plan on staying away from calc also.
 
I don't know what this class covers, but best case scenario this might fulfill a stats requirement, worst case (and more likely imo) this class sounds like it only covers high-school level math and may be a remedial course in disguise. For medical school you need at least one semester of calculus, and some schools will require two (through Taylor series, differential equations, advanced integration etc)

I don't think LSU requires calculus
