What math classes do you need for DO programs? I was going to just take Trigonometry and be done, since thats all I need for my degree, but is that enough for DO schools?

Thank you!

I believe so, I didn't take calc and had multiple acceptances--I don't know any of them that require more.

so far only 2 osteopathic schools require college math:

-UMDNJ-SOM requires applicants to complete 6 hours of math.
-UNTHSC/TCOM applicants must also take 3 hours of calculus or statistics.

See above. Only a few schools require math, and those that do usually only require a semester.
