I'm working on getting a biology degree (I will graduate Spring 2011) and its been 6 years since I took general chemistry. Some schools have a requirement that math/science courses must be taken within 5 years. Does this rule apply after graduation or does it not matter?
 
Since you have been in school all this time, I don't think they will require you to retake the courses.

I agree with this logic, but you are going to need to contact your school of choice OP. Only the school itself can answer this question.

But if you were getting a PhD or someother degree I doubt they would make you go back and retake them. I think as long as you are in school you should be fine.
 
I would contact the school but most schools will waive that since you have been using the knowledge you gained six years ago continuously.
