Hi all!
So, I took Organic I and II through a dual-enrollment program at my highschool. This class constituted as Orgo I and II from a local university and I received the credit for the classes at the university I currently attend. I know that most med-schools don't particularly like AP credit for pre-reqs, but what about outside credit? I was told that I should take more organic to "fill" the requirement, but the only organic class left is a graduate-level course (and I'm not that good at organic chemistry...)
 
I also took Organic I and II through dual-enrollment. This is considered real college credit, and has nothing to do with AP (other than the fact that you can earn both in high school). Who told you that you should take more organic? It seems to me that you filled your Ochem requirements..!
 
I was told that I shouldn't stop at this organic because "it looks bad" but I'm not sure. Organic is neither a love nor a forte for me, so taking more would be a disaster....
 
I have both of those under my belt.
I have all of the prereqs done except for biolabs

Prereqs to date:
Gen-chem: I and II (plus lab for I) AP Credit; Pchem + Achem (plus lab)
Organic: I and II dual enrollment; labs at home institution; Spectroscopic ID of Org m-c and Organic synthesis
Bio: I and II (Lab I in progress)
Physics: I and II plus labs
English: Lots
