I am presently finishing up the barry university masters in biomedical science program. First of all, barry only has a podiatry school, if you plan on attending the podiatry school then, yes all credits will transfer, otherwise, you have to negotiate with the school. I am planning on attending umdnj-som next year and they've told me that i can test out of gross, histo, physio, biochem, and even neuro, but it's up to the professors, i'm not planning on testing out of so many... i'm really happy with the program, it really does help you get in to med school, wherever i went for interviews, i found people from the program, and most med schools seemed to know about it. i've heard that at nsu-com most of the students from the program seem to do well. the other good thing is that if you don't get in you actually have a degree to show for all your efforts. there is also a one year program, that is considerably tougher, although i don't see much sense in it, since you have to wait a year anyway while you apply...I would still think that if you can get in to one of those programs that give you a guarantee of admission at the med school of your choice if you do well enough, and you don't have to repeat the courses, you would probably be better off, otherwise, barry is probably your best bet... you can email me if you have more questions... good luck!
