<p>Do you guys know of any bachelors/MD programs that don't require SAT II Chem or SAT II Physics? Well, any other than Rice/Baylor and Washington U?</p>
<p>there are TONNSSSS that require just a "science sat ii." i'm sure if you picked one at random, you would find one. although i do know northwestern requires chem.....i'm assuming ur taking the bio........cuz i think that would be necessary.....</p>
<p>for real? i've looked at brown and northwestern and bu...but i think all require sat II chem...yes, i've already taken the bio...i've had ap chem, too, but that was last year, and i think my chem knowledge has faded, not to mention i looked at the practice questions and missed every one</p>
<p>What? Where does it say that Brown requires Chem SAT II?</p>
<p>it doesn't? maybe i'm thinking of something else...thanks for pointing that out...i'll look again and let u know if it does require that...but thanks for pointing that out</p>
<p>anyone else? please!</p>
<p>UMKC's BA/MD program does not require any SAT IIs (or the SAT...they strongly prefer the ACT), but you still need to have a VERY strong background in Chemistry.</p>
<p>From my research, I have found only one BS/MD program that specificly asks for SAT II Chem. It is Northwestern University.</p>
<p>I believe the BU program requires SAT II Chemistry.</p>
<p>doesn't Boston also required MCAT's and request that you take SAT II language? My memmory is a bit hazy at the moment:)</p>
<p>What do MCATs and SAT II language have to do with the SAT II Chem forum... the fact that some programs require MCATS doesn't stop them from being 7- or 8-year accelerated med school programs, does it?</p>
<p>igrok:</p>
<p>In my previous post, I have never made the claim that a requirement of MCAT's makes a program non-accelerated. Contrary to it, I was inquiring about the Boston program and its requirments. Last I checked, this was a forum to bring people together in order that we may benefit from each other's knowledge. Asking questions is what this forum is all about! Is it not?!</p>
<p>chocagonobel: I apologize for my previous post. I think I misunderstood what you had written. </p>

<p>Q: What are the requirements for the Seven-Year Liberal Arts/Medical Education and Dental Education Programs?
A: The Seven-Year Liberal Arts/Medical Education and Dental Education Programs allow academically talented and highly motivated students to begin taking medical school courses at the Boston University School of Medicine or dental school courses at the Goldman School of Dental Medicine in their senior year of college, thereby receiving a bachelors degree and completing medical or dental school in seven years instead of the normal eight. To apply, students must take the SAT I or ACT and the following SAT II exams: Chemistry, Writing, and Mathematics Level IIc. No substitutes for these required tests will be accepted. In addition, applicants must submit a counselor recommendation and three specific teacher recommendations: one each from a teacher of English, laboratory science, and either history or a foreign language. The application deadline for the Accelerated Programs is December 1. Students selected as finalists for these programs will be contacted and are required to interview on campus in January or February. These interviews are conducted by both the Medical or Dental School faculty and the College of Arts and Sciences faculty.</p>
<p>This came off the FAQ from the BU site. </p>
<p>It says (on the second link somewhere, I believe) that students must maintain a 3.2 GPA to remain in the program once they are in. Students are expected to get at least a 28 on the MCAT. They also many not apply to any other medical schools if they are part of this program. I guess once you're in it, you're in it for good.</p>
<p>The second link also contains information about the curriculum and a proposed course of study. It looks like it's possible to do it for 8 years and eliminate the summer work as well. </p>
<p>Again, I'm sorry for the misunderstanding. I definitely am here to learn about stuff too.</p>
<p>A 28 is not bad at all. It is achieved by some 30 to 35% of test takers. For more info. <a href="http://www.aamc.org/students/mcat/examineedata/sumaug04.pdf%5B/url%5D">http://www.aamc.org/students/mcat/examineedata/sumaug04.pdf</a></p>
