Is it Ok to take one of my pre-req's in a Grad Program?

Say I have taken all my BCMP classes except for Bio II, but I plan on attending a MS program where I will be taking Molecular Biology, Microbial Genetics, Human Genetics, Immunology, Pathology, Biochemistry, Cell and Tissue Culture, et al., does it matter that I basically satisfied that second Bio pre-req in my Grad MS program? They only require one Bio class as a pre-req into the Masters program....

Does all pre-req work have to be done at the undergrad level? It seems silly if that's the case.

Thanks people !! 👍

I don't think this matters except in how the GPA is categorized. Any coursework taken under the auspices of a grad program counts under your graduate GPA, regardless of whether the coursework is grad or undergrad level.

Unless you're worried about your undergrad BCMP, I don't think you have anything to worry about.

That's what I thought but you never know with those cooky admissions policies...

Thanks and congrats on your acceptance at Nova!
