Hi everyone,
I'm beginning my preparations for the MCAT and was wondering if it would be better to take an intro physiology class or an upper division physiology class, because the upper division class requires a prerequisite that I don't need for anything. How much in detail does the MCAT cover physiology? Also, is it necessary for me to take an anatomy class to prepare for the MCAT too?
Here are the descriptions of either physiology classes:
intro physiology class (4 units with lab): general introduction to the functional integration of human body systems; intended for majors in biomedical engineering, physical education, and the allied health fields
upper division physiology class (3 units no lab, prerequisite: ecology/physiology): function of various mammalian body systems, primarily of humans; emphasis on integration of homeostatic mechanisms of nervous, muscular, endocrine, cardiovascular, respiratory, renal, digestive, and reproductive systems
Thank you!
