Next semester I will be starting on doing my 36 hour upper level division credit and I would like to know how Med School would view that I take 1 science course that is 3000+ and the rest of the 8 credits in another field of study but it is still 3000+. I can take two sciences with the rest of it being from another field but I have a job as well and thankfully my employers are supportive of my future endeavors for medicine. Will one be fine or would they most prefer is a full time load with two science and some "fluff" classes?

I have absolutely no idea wtf you are talking about.

What is "3000+"?
What is 'another field'?
Hell, what is the first field?
Not all non-BCPM courses are "fluff".

"Will one be fine..." - one what? I can't answer your hypothetical comparison because it is utterly unclear what you are comparing.

I would suggest completely rewording this post and trying again if you want useful responses.

As @mehc012 said, you need to give us clear, concrete information for us to help you out. Presenting vague hypotheticals gives nothing. Just give the course description name.
 
I'm assuming he/she is referring to "3000+" as junior and above level courses via the course number (where 3XXX refers to junior level courses and 4XXX refers to senior level courses). Some universities use three digit numbers, some four digit numbers.

As far as the question, I don't think anyone will look all that closely as long as you do well.

Thanks...I thought perhaps that was what they were going for, but something about OP's wording made it completely impenetrable to me even with that assumption in there. Now that I've read it 4-5x, I'm starting to grasp the question but it really shouldn't take that much effort.
