Hi all! I'm a new poster, so forgive me if this question has been asked multiple times. I have taken plenty of science courses, but am just starting my Med School pre-reqs (chem, bio, physics, organic chem). So, I have two questions:
1. When schools require "two semesters of biology", is that usually an Intro Bio course + an upper level, or would classes like Anatomy and Physiology count towards that? I'm taking/ have taken all of these courses, but I'm just curious.
2. Would these classes count towards my sGPA? They seem like they should, considering they are Science classes, but the "BCPM" is throwing me off:
Anatomy + lab (BIO 129) - I got an A
Physiology + lab (BIO 141 + 142) - I got an A
Genetics (listed as BIO 133) - Currently taking
Microbiology + lab (listed as MICRB 106 + 107) - Currently taking
Nutrition (NUTR 251) - I got an A-
...so you can see why I would love for these to count towards my sGPA 😛
Whoops, let's make this three questions in case anyone feels ambitious enough to answer...
3. My freshman year at another university, I took a Gen Ed Math course (couldn't even tell you what it was called, the class was a joke). Will that factor into my sGPA or do only classes like Statistics and Calc count towards the sGPA?
Any feedback would be greatlyyyyy appreciated! 🙂 👍
