I am a sophomore at a private catholic university. My school offers A calculus based general physics and a non calculus based college physics. Does anyone know if Med schools care which one I take?
 
Although medical schools don't generally specify which you should take, the MCAT presupposes algebra-based physics. Because of this it is in your interest to take algebra-based rather than calc-based.
 
It is also easier.. so you get a better mark.
 
schools don't care. take the algebra based one.
 
My opinion makes it 4 out of 4. Take algebra-based for all the reasons listed above.
