I have completed the pre-reqs for med school. I am going to take classes this summer and upcoming fall and then begin preparing for the mcat Jan 2016.

I have the option of taking these classes in the summer:
A&P 1 and A&P 2--- this class is a 100 level class that is meant for nursing but is my last chance of having any sort of A&P class before medical school

I can also take a microbiology class at a local community college

Any thoughts on if the A&P 1/2 is worth spending my summer doing or if i'm better off taking micro at a community college?

For the upcoming fall I am taking biochem and
Microbiology or genetics--> both have a lab offered at the same time so I am only able to take 1 course.

Pathophysiology

How does this sound? if anyone has any recommendations I would appreciate it.

I have taken these classes. How closely does a&p for nursing correlate with the pre med version? Have you looked at the syllabus for each class?
 
I second Genetics. I thought Animal Physiology was also helpful for the MCAT.
