I'm an Anthropology major with a public health minor. In my major, I have focused mainly on biological anthropology, so I have taken two stats classes, physical and medical anthropology, and a global health and social epidemiology class. However, I have not taken any science-based chemistry or biology courses. I still have time to take a couple before I apply--how crucial are these classes if I want to do epidemiology? And which biology/chemistry classes should I focus on taking?

While not mandatory, classes such as physiology--those which have a body/disease orientation will be useful.
