I'm curious as to the variety of classes that were taken to fulfill prerequisites?
Which classes did you take to fulfill your physics and general chemistry? Did everyone do the basic Phys1010 and Chem 1110 and 1210? (I'm aware class numbers differ, but i'm implying the basic beginner classes).

Yeah I'm pretty sure everyone has to take General Chemistry I/II (with lab)... and physics I/II (with lab). I don't think there are any other options to fulfill this... since the upper level classes require completion of these basic core classes.
 
I figured as much. I'm sure it differs by program, but does the elementary physics (1010 level) count or is the college physics the class they mostly require (2010 level) ?

Elementary Physics probably is a algebra based class, while college physics is a calculus based class. Both are acceptable.

Make sure elementary physics at your school is not a "pre-physics" class.

OP, all of us have to take the exact same pre-req courses.
General Chem 1 & 2
Organic Chem 1 & 2
Physics 1 & 2 (although you can take either algebra-based or calculus-based as stated above)
Now the one option you do have to take various courses is the 8-hour Biology requirement. You aren't restricted to just BIOL 1 & 2. Most schools allow any combination of biology courses.
I took BIOL 1403 (General Biology I) and ZOOL 2403 (Human Anatomy) to satisfy the required 8 hours, then I also took ZOOL 2404 (Human Physiology) and BIOC 3621 (Elementary Biochemistry) just to better prepared.
