Hey all,
First a preamble to my question. I plan to apply in the 2009 application cycle. I got my undergrad outside the US but got my Master's and Ph.D. at US institutions. In addition, I also took most of my pre-requisites (Physics, General Chemistry, Organic Chemistry and English). However, I did not take any Biology prerequistes because I have upper level Biology courses such as Molecular Biology, Biochemistry, Proteins, Bacterial Genetics, Cell Biology etc. I also have a lot of laboratory experience both from graduate school and from my current employment.
My question(s): do Admissions Committees accept upper level courses in lieu of General Biology I and II? Anybody ever been in this situation? If so, can you please share your experiences?
Thank you,
