I'm picking my schools on AMCAS, and it seems like no Texas school except Baylor has a regular M.D. program... Really??

They do, it's just that they use a separate application service called TMDSAS. You can find out more about them on their website http://www.utsystem.edu/tmdsas/

Texas just thinks they're that much better than the rest of the union. 😀

Oh nice, thanks for the link!
But why do they have weird requirements?
http://www.utsystem.edu/tmdsas/medical/education_Requirements.html
6 semester Eng? 14 hrs Bio?
Don't most school only require 2 semester Eng and 8 hr bio?
*sigh.. why do they make it so difficult for OOSs..
All I want is to study at my fiance's home state, is that too much to ask?

It is just 2 semesters of English- it's 6 semester hours of English 🙂
I've always heard of 14 hrs of bio (basically 2 years, 1 year with lab), but maybe that's just me being from Texas.

Usually we do Bio1+lab and Bi 2+lab, so is 8 hr total.. How does it work in Texas?

So for us, it would be Bio1+lab, Bio2+lab (8hrs), and then 2 more classes (6 hrs).
And what, MY avatar isn't interesting enough for you? 🙁

They list the rules for AP credit at the top of the page, 4th bullet. You should be fine if your university listed it as granting credit for Bio1+lab and Bio2+lab on your transcript.
And, hmph.
