How important is physics for medical school?
I'm currently taking physics 101 and 102 over the summer and I recently completed my physics 101 course. I just found out today I got a B+ in physics instead of A, which I expected. I was wondering if the B in physics will affect me when applying for med school, mainly because I took algebra based physics and I took it in summer, which is known for courses to be slightly easier then in the spring and fall. Should I retake physics 101 again?

Don't retake a B, it's fine; no one will care. Just aim to do better on the rest of your prereqs. 😉
 
Well they are pre-reqs, so they are very important.

That being said, a B won't kill you. Try to get an A in physics 2.
