Why don't you pick the course you think will be the most interesting and give you the best chance for an A. Helps keep the GPA up.

I like hoberto's advice, but at the same time, if you want to prepare yourself more for medical school, more power to you. My personal opinion is to take Embryology and Human Anatomy, but it's whatever you believe you will enjoy and do well in.

My hardest course in the first year was Gross Anatomy. The Human Anatomy would be a helpful preparation.

I don't think the molecular biology would be very useful, since we don't get that in depth. The embryology & microorganisms coures would be helpful, but are not as big of a deal as anatomy by far.

If it were me, I would have take anatomy with embryology and microorganisms a tie for second choice, depending on which area you like more.

Embryology is hard. Do yourself a favor and take this class! - B (MS1)

It is, but it isn't worth as much as gross anatomy is in the long run.

For us, it was a very small portion of the course.

(Our course was called Gross & Developmental Anatomy)
