What are the exact classes required for med school during your undergrad?

mvenus929 said:Each school varies slightly in their exact requirements, but generally:
*1 year Gen Bio + lab
*1 year Gen Chem + lab
*1 year Organic Chem + lab
*1 year English
*1 year Physics + lab
Some schools require some sort of social science (such as Psychology or Anthropology), others require math as well. But those are typically the requirements.

I think statistics is one of the more important classes you can take, to be honest... not because you have to, but because you need to be able to read articles and understand what data is actually being shown. Your university should have a statistics course for science majors that is light on the math.vincikai said:okay I have a Year+ of Calculus should i worry about taking statistics??? because i am really not a statistics person.
