Ok, so here are the pre-req for the medical school:
General Biology or Zoology with laboratory (Botany alone is not sufficient to meet this requirement),
Now, I read on a blog (not affiliated with medical school):
"For premed requirements, you are only allowed to take bio and chem courses that are suitable for someone who majors in the field, regardless of what your actual major is."
Ok...so my course catalog!
General Biology - 1050
"May not count toward BIOL major or minor. Molecular basis of biology, bioenergetics, control systems, reproduction and development, genetics, diversity, evolution, communication, and behavior ecosystems."
Principles of Biology - 1100
Molecular biology, bioenergetics, cellular structure, and physiology. Molecular basis of inheritance and control of gene expression.
So here is my question...which do I take?!?! It clearly says that general bio will not count toward a major, yet someone else said that medical schools require it to. My school has no general biology that counts toward a major. The biology major takes principles of biology.
