I tried to sign up for physics this semester but was told I needed precal...so I am currently taking precal and chemistry...I wanted to start med school after summer '08 but because how the classes are scheduled I will only be able to complete physics I and the school does not offer physics II until spring '09!!! Info I have on top 4:
SGU - one semester of physics w/lab (would work GREAT!)
SABA - physics is "recommended" (can I take one semester and get by?)
Ross and AUC require 1 year...
I am looking at other schools within hour drive that might offer physics II sooner...My questions are
(1) Will SGU or SABA accept one physics...
(2) I wanted to take MCAT's May or July '08 - is this soon enough for fall admission to SGU or SABA?
Thanks for your help!!!
 
I hated Physics, that said if you are taking for a Caribbean school then why not at a CC? you will not need precalc just ALgebra based.

The CC has 2 physics, general and intro, precal and cal based respectively, go figure!! Do you think I can get by with one semester (SABA or SGU)?

Yea if that is the only requirement, Physics is on the MCATS but you use it very very little in Medschool.
