They won't care. Calc II isn't even a required class for med school.

They won't care what you get in Calc II. But keep in mind that math classes count towards the science GPA, which med schools do care about.

Do you need it for your major? If you don't need it for your major, don't waste your time or you may potentially damage your GPA even further for something that's not needed. Take statistics.

I agree with Ismet. Unless you need calc II for your major or for future physics classes, I would take statistics. Many schools recommend it anyways and it helps to have a basic background for medicine/research.

Stats! Way more useful.

Lots of places require 2 semesters of math and don't specify. The only schools I know of that require two semesters of calc are JHU, WUSTL, and Harvard. If you want to fulfill the requirements for a second semester, I would definitely take stats/biostats.

Shouldn't matter where you take it. Save some money and take it over at the CC. Calc 2 is an easy A so don't sweat it and get a nice small boost to your sGPA from it.

Unfortunately, I'm a biology major at UMD, and they require that I take Calc I and II

In that case, take it at the community college and save yourself some stress and money. Where you took calc won't really matter to schools. If you can fit it in later down the road, I still recommend a statistics course. Good luck.
