Hey everybody. I’m a transferring community college student now studying pre med at a university. I had a couple questions regarding community college and how it’s viewed by med schools.
1.) Do med schools account for non-transferable units? Some units at community college are “non-transferable” meaning they do not technically transfer as units to a 4-year university. Is this the same for medical school? Or do medical schools account for ALL - every single class ever taken?
2.) Do medical schools look down upon community college transfers? Are they viewed as less favorable as candidates who attended only university?
3.) I received an “F” in an extremely low level math class that is not transferable. Will this be viewed negatively, and also impact my med school GPA? Or since it is a low level, non transferable math class do they not account for it in calculating my GPA?
thank you everybody!
