  1. Pre-Medical
I have a strong math background in Calc I and II, and I have AP credits for both classes.

Additionally, I am a registered tutor with my university for Calc I and II and Finite Math, and I do have a semester of Finite Math and Biostatistics on my transcript.

Is this enough? Or should I take Calc?

Certain medical schools will not accept AP credit ... so check MSAR (and review medical school websites concerning pre-requisites and/or AP credit).

Taking it will increase the number of schools you can apply to (which may not be important if you don’t plan on applying to places like HMS). Since you seem very comfortable with calc already, I’d say just take it.
