Is taking part one of a premed class in one college and finishing the other in a different college bad when applying?

I had physics 1 done in community college A but am now attended a different community college, should I start over and take physics 1 and 2 in this community college B?

I heard that medical schools do not like when you start a series of classes and finish them in a different college. They want the same series done in one college.

The only thing that makes me not want to start over is that Physics I was taken in a college that is in the same district as the other college I'm currently attending.

I've never heard of such a preference and I've been doing this for 20 years.

Doesn't matter.

Welcome to the forums.

I've never heard of that preference before either. Maybe you heard it from academic advisors at Community College A because they don't want to lose your potential tuition/income.

Thank you for welcoming me! For some reason, I am not sure why I didn't see your message, must have flown by.

As for my question, I am not sure, the counselor told me that "most 4-year colleges like to see that you finish the series in the same instituion" and some other premed family friend had "warned me about that"
