Hi,
I'm new here to these forums, and did some looking around at the other VCU threads, and am not sure if they're talking about the program I'm thinking of. Mainly, I know there are different programs for different situations (Non science majors, GPA/MCAT boosters, gap year students, etc...and I couldnt really tell which one I was reading about in the various threads). For instance I thought I was reading about the program I was interested in, but then saw someone asking about their MCAT...would the MCAT be required for the pre-req pre-med program? I'm not sure I would feel comfortable taking it without more science courses than I currently have...
Anyway, I'm graduating this year with a degree in History, I started off as a biology major but switched after one year, simply because I was your typical confused college student. Anyway, I've decided that I want to pursue sciences and apply to medical school.
I've taken a few science classes (namely Biology, Anatomy) and some of the Geneds required (such as Stats, etc), but obviously most of my pre-reqs arent met for applyign to medical school. For this reason I was looking for information on the VCU program that is geared towards non-science majors that have graduated and are now looking to do their pre-reqs and apply to medical school.
Has anyone here been through that program, or know where I can find more information on it (other than http://www.vcu.edu/uc/prehealth/Prehealthpostbach.htm)
Any help is greatly appreciated, Thanks!
