Call schools to ask if I've met biochem requirement?

Hello all,

I took a 3 credit biochemistry class and now don't know if it will meet school requirements. This particular class is a 200 level biochem class labeled "Basic Biochemistry." Organic Chem 1 is the only prerequisite for it. There's a higher level biochem at my school that requires Organic Chem 1 and 2 before taking; however, this class can't be taken for credit if the 200 one is already taken. Each of these classes qualify as the prereq for Biochem II. This makes me think they're basically the same class? Will this 200-level biochem most likely meet the biochem requirement at most schools?

Has anyone taken a 200-level biochem class to meet the biochem requirement at schools?

I took a 200 level biochem course, and the schools I applied to with that requirement did send me a secondary...no II yet from those schools

Thank you! I can't imagine it being a problem since the 100 vs 200 vs 300 vs . . . distinction is so different among schools. My school doesn't offer 400 level classes so 200 is considered junior level.

Yeah I had the option of taking a 200 level or 500 level biochem...I think the 200 should be fine.

If orgo 1 was a pre req I'm 90% sure this should satisfy their curriculum requirements. Orgo 1 was the only pre req at my school and my bio chem Course (listed as a 300 at my uni) was accepted.
