Hi All,
I have seen this question was asked a few years ago, but there was no final answer in the thread.
Is there a comprehensive list of schools (M.D. / D.O.) that will accept a semester of biochemistry in lieu of a second semester of organic chemistry? If someone has contacted a school and knows that they are likely to accept this, please list the school as I'd appreciate this information.
I'm a non-traditional applicant and have the following classes left to take (besides Organic Chem II): General Chem II, Physics I and II. I work full-time and travel every week for work so I have a hard time taking more than one class at a time (especially with a lab), but may be able to fit three classes in over two semesters.
I have already taken a semester of Organic Chem (with lab) and a semester of Biochemistry (this was without lab, but I can take a lab if needed).
I plan to prioritize applying to schools that will accept biochemistry in place or Organic Chem II for the Fall of 2011. If I'm unsuccessful, I then plan to take the Organic Chem II to increase the number schools I can apply to for the Fall of 2012.
As I'm already a non-traditional applicant and older, I'd like to avoid waiting another year (if at all possible).
Thank you so much.
