AP chemistry or Honors Anatomy and Physiology

Test Preparation AP Sciences
1

I was wondering if I should take AP chemistry or honors anatomy and physiology. I want to get into UCLA as a biology major and med school later and I’m already taking other aps so I don’t want to overload myself too much

Take AP Chem. You will need General Chemistry, Orgo Chemistry, etc for medical school and the MCAT.

3

I’ll be taking both one in my junior and one in my senior. I’m taking AP biology right now. I was wondering which one to take in my junior year before college apps

AP chemistry is the most important AP for a pre-med. (The pre-med sequence requires 5 chemistry classes v 2 Biology classes. Excellence in chemistry is vital.) Also make sure you have a class in biology and a class in physics.

AP Chem is a no-brainer.

(fwiw: since so much of Bio now revolves around chemical reactions, IMO, AP Chem is better taken before AP Bio.)

I agree, AP Chem is better prep for your next hurdle to med school, which is getting high grades and a good MCAT score.
