Hi everyone!
I was blessed to have one acceptance from that one interview that I have received in this cycle.
I am extremely grateful and am living in absolute bliss.
As much as I am enjoying this unbelievable event in my life, I have been making sure to see if I have anything I should complete before starting my new journey in medicine.
I was looking back at at the pre-reqs that were listed in the school's website.
The following were the listed courses:
For the first two bulletpoints, does this mean that I need 3 quarters and 3 quarters of labs?
During my undergrad, I have completed 3 quarters of bio and 2 quarters of upper div bio labs and 3 quarters of gen chem (in addition to my recent CHEM 14XB extension course I have taken through UCLA to make up a C- in one of my gen chem series) and one quarter general chem lab.
For the labs, they were all 4 quarter units each.
TL;DR Medical school requires 2 bio with lab and 2 gen chem with lab (semester units). I have 3 quarters of bio courses and 2 quarter of upper division bio lab courses (4 units each). Three quarters of general chemistry courses and 1 quarter of gen chem lab. Are my courses sufficient? Or should I be enrolling in classes ASAP?
Thank you in advance! 🙂

The following were the listed courses:
- Two courses of general biology with laboratory
- Two courses of general chemistry or equivalent with laboratory
- One course of organic chemistry with an accompanying laboratory (Note: A second course of organic chemistry is recommended, or if required by the applicant’s institution)
- One course of introductory biochemistry
- Two courses of general physics with laboratory
- One course of advanced-level biology (junior or senior level)
