I was reading the admission site for one of the school I am applying to and noticed this note:
Grades or credits from subjects offered in the medical curriculum will not be accepted toward fulfilling the required 90 credit hours of undergraduate work or the science requirements. Courses in human anatomy, histology, human physiology, medical bacteriology, microbiology, medical biochemistry, medical genetics, and medical pharmacology fall within this category.
Now some of these are obvious, but I am a little suprised classes like micro and physiology are in this list. The medical school won't even count them towards credit. I think it infers they don't want you to take them at all, which I don't think makes a ton of sense. Do you guys agree with my assumption. Assuming this is my school of choice, do you recommend I drop my micro and physiology from my fall class schedule? I would need to replace them with some non-science class I guess (which I already have plenty of as a non-science major). Thanks!
