<p>If I test out of Calculus I and Calculus II with AP Credits, would Med. Schools accept Statistics and say...Linear Algebra to fulfill my Math requisites?</p>
<p>Most would, for most math is math and they just want two semesters.</p>
<p>great. thanks a lot bigndude!</p>
<p>some may specifically mention a year of Calculus. If you're able to test out out of Calc. I & II, then you're probably a good math student. You should take Calc. III; most people say that Calc. III is a lot like Calc. I and that Calc. II is the hardest. Linear Algebra should help you in Calculus b/c you learn about vectors and other concepts that are taught in Calc. III. </p>
<p>Additionally, math courses contribute to your science GPA that medical schools see.</p>
<p>I'm getting credit for calc 1 differential, and calc 2 integral but I think I'm going to retake calc 1 and 2 anyways for the gpa boost, since I'm a transfer student going into my second year and I havent taken calc 1 and 2 since my sophomore and junior years of high school respectively 3-4 years ago. I also dont want there to be any negative point from the med school's point of view if i take some random math course along with stat(which I have to take anyways for my neurobiology major). I would just take calc 2 but again the only calc 1 background I have is from almost 4 years ago, which was high school level that I'm not going to rely on esp since like the above poster mentioned its pretty hard.</p>
<p>It all really depends though, if you really know your calculus at a college level(I only got a 3 on BC, but my 5 on AB gave me the credit for calc 1 and 2) then you should go ahead and take a year of advanced calculus past calc 2. some schools will let you take stat instead of another semester of calc. I think most all good schools will want one semester of calc at college, and I think there were 3 or 4 posted somewhere like JHU, Duke, Harvard that wanted a full year of calc.</p>
