A school I am looking at says 13 hours chemistry, I took Chem 1 and 2, and general organic chemistry that was a 5 hour class w/lab as well as a 3 hour biochem class w/ no lab. Do I need to take Organic Chem 1 and 2?

Check if you need it for biochemistry, my school requires taking the entire ochem series to move onto biochem

Depends on the school. In general most want at least 8 hrs of each group (bio, chem, ochem, phy) with labs and many want biochem now. Use caution if you aim to only meet one med school's requirements.

Don't forget that beyond school requirements you also have to take the MCAT which includes ochem, chem, and heavily biochem.
