Chances?

I have my masters degree in engineering from a very good public university. My job is alright, but I am considering going into medicine. Do you think it would be a big deal if I took my pre-reqs at a community college? Of course I have taken some of them, but it has been a while so I was planning on taking the core classes over again. I am curious about your thoughts...

Have you shadowed any podiatrists and other specialists? What draws you towards medicine?

TUSPM told me that 1-2 prerequisite courses at a community college was ok... However, they would not recommend you take ALL your courses there...

Also, this might sound bad, but they don't seem to care much for engineering. I have a B.S. in Biomedical Engineering from Wash U and the most I ever got from an admissions officer is, "oh, you went to Wash U? Have you taken upper level biology courses? No? Oh... Hmm... Well... you should take them."
