Hello everyone,
I am a Canadian applicant and my school has a rule that prohibits non physics/astronomy majors from taking Physics 1 and 2 specifically. I was told that it was to help people in this program familiarize with each other and prepare them for second year physics courses/find their interests within physics. I was told that anyone going into medical schools must take the Physics with Life Sciences application 1 and 2 courses. Both courses are calculus based, provided by the physics department, cover the same topics, and have labs associated with them. The life sciences one aparently goes more out of its way to provide biological/medical applications as part of the concept explanations. I have also taken a "physics fundamentals" course with no lab as part of my undergraduate.
Do you think that these courses would be considered for physics prerequisites? I will also contact specific schools but wanted to see if I can get some opinions here first. Thank you!
