I recently decided to pursue medicine, and I don't have any of my science prerequisites done yet. I'll be completing Chem 101 this semester at my local CC, and will be transferring to UCSD next fall. I really need to save all the time I can get because I'm so behind (I plan to graduate 3 years after I transfer).
1) Would it be alright if I took Chem 102 at another CC during the summer (my local CC doesn't offer it)? This would really free up a lot of time for me, as then I'll be able to take the OChem series right off the bat at UCSD instead of finishing a quarter of Calculus followed by 2 quarters of Chem.
2) If so, would I then need to take an upper-division Inorganic Chem course at UCSD to prove that I can handle a rigorous Inorganic Chem course?
3) Lastly, do I need an understanding of Calculus prior to taking OChem I and II?
