This was always a question I had but was never able to get much of an answer. I have already taken Statistics and passed with an A-. I was planning on taking Biostats but was wondering if that would be enough to meet the math requirement for medical school. Should I at least take Pre Calculus and then one semester of Calculus even though I know I am stronger at Stats?
