Hey guys, so I recently registered for a ONE semester Anatomy and Physiology class, and my professor said she was surprised that I was taking this course over the 2 semester A+P course that is available here. The majority of pre-med students were taking the 2 semester course, and my class was basically a ton of nurses.
3 questions:
- I have read that the Physiology is more important than the Anatomy, but in terms of MCAT preparation, how much better is a 2 semester A+P course VS 1 semester A+P course.
- Will med schools view this as me taking the "Easy way out"? I am doing this so that next semester I can maybe try and take cell bio or genetics, but if I take the 2 semester A+P course I wouldn't be able to do that.
- Is it usual for pre-med students to take a ONE semester A+P course? Is there anyone else out there that has taken/has pre-med friends taking a 1 semester course?
Thanks a lot in advance!
