Inorganic chemistry substitutes

<p>My school doesn't have inorganic chem so what should I take instead?</p>

<p>Do you mean “General Chemistry”?</p>

<p>yeah, as plumazul is hinting at, one year of inorganic chem is typically satisfied by classes with titles like “Intro to Chemistry,” “General Chemistry,” or “Principles of Chemistry”</p>

<p>Oh right… our ■■■■■■■■ school had Chemistry AND Inorganic chemistry listed as pre-med recommended courses…</p>

<p>Maybe they meant Chemistry to be Organic. The main pre-med requirements are about the same at each med school:</p>

<p>2 terms General Bio with lab
2 terms Gen Chem with lab
2 terms Org Chem with lab
2 terms Physics with lab</p>

<p>Some schools require:
1 or 2 terms Calculus and or Statistics
1 or 2 terms English/Writing
1 term Genetics and or Biochemistry</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>Strange. “Inorganic” Chemistry usually refers to an upper(senior/graduate) level course for chemistry majors. It’s a class I must take for ACS certification. It certainly isn’t required for pre-med.</p>

<p>I assume the reason your school used that modifier is to stress the point that you must take general chem AND organic chem.</p>

<p>What school is this?</p>

<p>Some schools call Gen Chem “inorganic” . also some schools have upper division courses called inorganic.</p>

<p>For schools that have upper division courses called inorganic, these courses are the ones that the chemistry department lures those who have take AP Chemistry credit into taking these courses.</p>

<p>Sporty…are you at Univ of Tampa or Florida Gulf Coast?</p>

<p>It sounds like you’re at FGC. Is that right? if so, then can you provide the link for its list of pre-med pre-reqs. I can’t find it on their website.</p>
