I'm wondering if someone could clear this up for me. Indiana requires 3 credit hrs. of biochem and doesn't require the lab correct? I'm asking this because the "pre-reqs for each Indiana school" page on their website has 4 hrs. of biochem under the ISU page. However, biochem lecture with no lab is only 3 hrs. I assume this is a typo, but, I thought I should make sure and I'd rather not bug the admissions office unless I have to.

To my knowledge, you are correct. Indiana requires 3 hours of Biochemistry (4.5 quarter hours) and there is no lab requirement. My university's Biochemistry I class is actually a 4-credit course with no lab; we met for lecture three times a week for extended periods. So it is possible that ISU may do something similar, perhaps even meet 4 times a week with no lab.
