Hi everyone, I am wondering if those of you who have taken an anatomy course in college found it to be good preparation for medical school. I'm leaning towards not taking it because I will already be taking 12 credits of science classes (Calc 2, Organic 2, PChem) the semester it's offered at my school, plus 2-3 credits of research activities. Since it's my senior year I'd like to have some wiggle room to fit in volunteering, shadowing, etc. and finish strong. Also, many of my friends who have taken it said that they've forgotten 90% of what they've learned. I have already taken physiology.
Since I've become interested in medical school pretty late in the game, I am also looking at taking 1-2 gap years to be ready to apply. In my situation, would anatomy be worth it?
