I attended college for three and a half years before stopping for two and a half years due to depression. I returned this fall in hopes of graduating in May. I planned on taking two semesters to graduate because I wanted to complete the Biology prerequisites and also take a few other Biology courses to improve my science gpa while I completed my degree. Last semester I took four courses which consisted of two Biology courses and two courses in my major. In order to graduate in May, all I need is two courses in my major. Instead of doing this I have decided to take one course in my major along with two Biology courses and a two credit research assignment. This will leave me with one course left in my major to complete before I graduate. I plan on graduating next May when I take the Chemistry and Physics prerequisites. How bad will this look to medical schools? Will it hurt me a great deal in that it will take five and a half years for me to graduate? Will I be asked about it in interviews? Will it help me to not have graduated when I fill out the financial aid documents for next fall? Any input will be appreciated. Thank you.
