Hi all,
I noticed on the MSAR that 80% of med schools either recommend or require a genetics course in premed coursework. I was wondering if my Molecular and Cell Biology class would suffice in this regard with respect to the perspective of adcoms. I feel obligated to take a genetics course even if its "recommended" by the med school (especially the UCs) because I know they look at the breadth of an applicant's courseload, but its not really something I personally would be interested in.
