Have you ever found yourself wondering, "Why am I taking this class?" or "How is this going to help me to become the physician that I desire to be?"
I am currently asking myself that question while taking physics. Don't get me wrong - I'm not here to complain. I love math (and let's be real, that's pretty much what physics is). Nonetheless, I don't understand why it's a prereq.
I decided to make this a thread because I wanted to see if y'all had similar opinions or if you think that there should be classes added to prereqs? Taken away? How about no prereqs at all? Especially with upcoming new MCAT, it seems that the tides a shifting (hopefully for the better).
Here's a short little article about it:
