I took advanced Cell Molecular Biology(BIS 104) as well as Cell Biomolecules and Metabolism (BIS105) Some of the colleges say that I can use them in place of general biology. My question is under what CORE PREREQUISITE do i put these two classes under if i am only supposed to put introductory biology in Biology I/Biology II with lab section?
 
I believe w/ the PTCAS CORE means CORE exactly as they state. Reread the directions on their web site carefully. The individual colleges will look at your entire transcripts and planned classes to look for what they want specifically or what is acceptable. Some note their PROGRAM prereq. (i.e. as English, and math) but there is not a place to put these on the PTCAS CORE pull down. Have you checked the link "full PTCAS pull down instruction PDF" that are on their home page? http://www.ptcas.org/PTCASInstructions_2011_12.pdf

Also when in doubt call the program. Hope this helps a bit. Good Luck
