I've noticed on the CIB that many schools strongly recommend biochemistry. I haven't had it. Other than the few schools that absolutely require it, how important is it for admission?

I would say take it if you can. It can't hurt...
During the Touro-NV interview day the admissions guy said that even though biochem is not required it is really helpful to have been exposed to it before starting your first year. He even mentioned that they are thinking about making it a requirement for that very reason.
With competition increasing every year I would think that more and more schools will being making it a requirement.
I have a friend in medical school now that couldn't remember what an aldehyde was and he was only 7 months removed.
I can't wait for the day I don't need to know what an aldehyde is ...
