<p>According to JHU med school admissions webpage:</p>

<p>"Organic Chemistry with Lab, one year (8 semester hours) A semester of biochemistry with lab may be substituted for the second semester of organic chemistry."</p>

<p>Does anyone recommend taking a semester of BioChem rather than 2nd semester of Organic? What are the advantages/disadvantages?</p>

<p>um the obviously disadvantage is that you'll only be qualified to apply for JHU. What about the 130 other US med schools?</p>

<p>Don't forget Harvard, haha.</p>

<p>So most other medical schools won't accept the above program?</p>

<p>Most require TWO semesters of Organic.</p>
