I am not going into a formal post-bac program because I do not have the money, but I do plan on taking courses at my state school.

What kinds of courses should I be taking?

I'm just concerned because I've done my basics like Anatomy & Physiology and most of the courses offered are things like 300-level Virology. Do you think something like that bolsters my application?

And should I stick to any certain level? I'm guessing 100 & 200 level courses are out, but are 300 level courses legitimate or should I stick to just 400 level courses?
 
I don't think the level of the course matters. Take science courses that you can do well in and are interested in.
 
I've set up my schedule for next semester and I am taking

300-level Virology
300-level Genetics
400-level Advanced Head & Neck Anatomy
200-level Ecology
100-level Astronomy

Should I try to add or subtract anything from this group? The Eco & Astro I'm only taking to fill my schedule because I had a hard time filling it with upper level sciences and also because I'm trying to do well in all of the courses.
