Basically, I’m already enrolled and have spent a year in a 4-year college. Unfortunately I dropped my gen bio last semester due to certain circumstances. Anyways I’m planning on taking gen bio at a community college next semseter while still taking all my other science courses at my regular college like chemistry, physics, orgo, and all the upper division bio courses. And also in that same semester I’ll be taking gen chem 1, calc 2, and English lit but at my regular college.
My question is will schools still accept me if I go through with this ?

Why aren't you planning to repeat the class at your regular college?

Well for a number of reasons but to make it short, the professor isn’t the best and my school only offers one professor for gen bio, the class size is near 300, and the community college class fits better in my schedule. I plan to do well in the upper level courses and do well on the mcat so that I’ll still be considered academically fit for medschool.

"I plan to do well on the mcat" famous last words for many...
I would take it at your 4 year if you can, CC really looks like a short cut to most med school admissions.

Your reason is good enough. You'll be fine taking it at the CC, assuming adequate course rigor.
