Classes

<p>What classes should I take aside from my major?</p>

<p>When they say:</p>

<pre><code>* A year of Freshman Chemistry along with the appropriate laboratory courses
* A year of Organic Chemistry along with laboratory courses
* A year of Biology along with laboratory courses
* A year of Physics along with laboratory courses
* A year of English
* A year of Calculus or other advanced math classes, including Statistics
</code></pre>

<p>Does this mean Chem 101 w/ lab?</p>

<p>If that's the standard intro gen chem course for premeds at your school. At Cornell Chem 101 is a fluff class for people who've never seen a molecular formula before. The premeds actually take Chem 207-208.</p>

<p>Is it possible not to be in a pre-med\pre-health program and if I major in psychology and also took the classes:</p>

<p>BIO 101(with lab 111)
BIO 102(with lab 112)
Chem 101(with lab 111)
Chem 102(with lab 112)
(organic)CHEM 223 (with lab 225)
(organic)CHEM 224 (with lab 226)
PHYS 111 (with lab 131)
PHYS 112 (with lab 132)</p>

<p>and then a year of English and calc or stats</p>

<p>Are those classes to basic?
If I took the science classes listed above and had a very good GPA and a competitive MCAT score could I get into med school?</p>

<p>Thanks</p>

<p>I'm confused. You say you don't want to be in a premed/pre-health program, but still take the pre-med reqs? There is no formal pre-med program that you have to enter in order to be considered for med school. As long as you take the classes that you listed above, you can apply to med school as a psychology major.</p>

<p>Also, those classes are not too basic as they are required, but med schools like to see that you can handle upper level science courses as well.</p>
