Check the prehealth advising office website at the school where you are taking classes. There should be a page or so on prerequisites which should list the appropriate courses. If not, send them an email or make an appointment.
 
One thing you'll want to double check is # credit hours required for some things. Since you're on a quarter system, you'd need to convert to semester hours. Some schools require a number of semester hours that you might not meet, depending on your courses.
