I just want to help people. I am in Pre Nursing because you don’t need advanced math skills, nursing dosage and you are done. I don’t want to be that nurse who regrets not going for their MD/DO, but if I know that my math skills won’t cut it or it’s too late to catch up on them, I can live with that.

You’ve probably seen this question a million times.What math skills should you have “mastered” to tackle Medical School prerequisites? In other words, what should I be working on for physics and chemistry?

Thanks,
AHD

If you want the bare minimum. College algebra and maybe statistics. I'm not aware of any school that won't accept alegebra based physics, and the math in Chem isn't that hard.

Some schools require, or strongly recommend, statistics and a semester of calc. And I believe there are still a couple that want a year of calc.
