The fact that we should learn spanish so we can all take care of illegal immigrants is such a pisser I want to start screaming (in english) and pull out all my hair. If they want doctors who speak spanish then why don't they just stay in Mexico where everyone speaks spanish? Then, they can have their 13 children there and we could have hospitals that aren't bankrupted by illegals and other douches that don't pay their bills.
But that's another subject all together.
Honestly, I think some of it depends on what school you're at. At my school, biochem was a joke - totally no big deal (ironic, but true). Anatomy was a complete and total nightmare (an entire year of dealing with a fat sociopath - talking about our teacher, not the cadaver) and the people that had never seen it before were really behind (me included). Even having a dinky A&P class is preferrable to not having any anatomy at all. If only to get yourself oriented (like learning the stupid terms, proximal, distal, sagital, transverse, etc and get a few names memorized of random bones and crap). I have to tell you it's a lot easier to RE-learn something than it is to learn it for the first time. It takes half the time, seriously. And you need lots of time in med school, to learn the 69804649 other things you're supposed to know. If you're not a science major (or a science person) I would take as many classes as you can. All those bio folk have these classes under their belt. You might as well too.
