Hi I am an incoming freshman at UC Irvine and I was just confused about what classes at UCI fulfill Medical School course requirements. Can anyone give me a rundown of the specific courses that will satisfy these requirements? (e.g. bio 93, chem 1a, etc.) Thank you. 🙂

bio 93, 94
--for bio requirements--

chem1A-B-C (with labs)
--for g.chem requirements--

physics 3A-B-C (with labs) or physics 7A-B-D-E (with labs)
--for physics requirements--

This list doesn't include all the med school requirements like the writing. however, you can definitely take all of the above your first year and satisfy a major chunk of your pre-requisites. Honestly, though, if you're a bio major you'll satisfy almost all the requirements naturally.

Bio 93, 94, 97, 98, 99, 100LW for lab..and any of the other labs M1xx, E1xx, N1xx

Chem: 1A, 1B, 1C; H2A, H2B, H2C; 51A, 51B, 51C; H52A, H52B, H52C (all with labs)

Physics: 3a, 3b, 3c; 7a, 7b, 7d, 7e (not too familiar with this). (also, with labs)

I would suggest Humanities Core Course, as that is a "double whammy"--you get 4 units of writing, 4 units of humanities. Load up on the social sciences too, just so that you can satsify requirements for most.

I found being in the campuswide honors program to be very helpful in forcing these requirements so you not only have diverse education, but also you end up satisfying a lot of grad school requirements!

Feel free to PM me with any questions you may have!

I'm not sure if he teaches undergrad or not, but if you can take a class with Professor Riegle...he's a pretty solid teacher. He helped with with a few questions on a practice MCAT that I took while I was down there.
