Pre-req @ Community College?...

Due to a scheduling error and a change of major I am now behind the 8 ball to graduate in four years. I have taken all other pre-reqs at my four year University and earned all As but in order to graduate in four years I have to take Physics 2 at a CC. Since I do view myself as a competitive applicant who wants to attend medical school at a Top 20 type medical school how will this affect me?

I really am stressing over this!

Thanks all.

i took my last prereq at a CC for similar reasons . . . needed to get it out of the way to graduate on time. now, i was never competitive for top 20s due to my low UG gpa but i did just fine at the mid tier schools i applied to. no one said a word to me about having taken a prereq at CC.

Yeah I didn't apply to any "top 20" schools...at least I dont think I did.

anyway, I took several pre-reqs at a CC before my 4 year and during my time at my 4 year. Of course I got A's in them, but never heard one thing about it in any interview, and I received multiple acceptances if that means anything.

It isn't ideal but it isn't a deal breaker.
