<p>how come wen i search for Premedical requirements @ UCI, i can only find: School of Biomedical Engineering: Premedical. The requirements are extremely long as opposed to the simple:</p>
<p>One year of biology with laboratory (some schools require more)
One year of general chemistry with laboratory
One year of organic chemistry with laboratory
One year of physics with laboratory
One year of English composition</p>
<p>??? I was plannign to do premed w/ psychologysocialbehavior but now i'm not so sure if i can complete all these requirements</p>
<p>You can do premed with any major. The "BME: Premed" major is a biomedical engineering major that also covers all premed requirements.</p>
<p>yeah Premed isnt an actual major u just call yourself that when you are trying to get into med school</p>
<p>Well, there IS one major that has the word "premed" in the title, and it's the aforementioned Biomedical Engineering: Premed major. There's also a BME major that's not premed and I believe it leaves out some of the upper division bio classes and the organic chem too.</p>
<p>If I were you, I'd choose a major that you are interested in and just make your own curriculum to fit your medical school requirements. (that depends on which schools you are loooking at too)</p>
<p>What UClippers said, it's just what you call yousef. The bme premed major is bioengineering that supposedly covers ur premed requirements. But depending on which med school you are planning on apply to, it might not be everything you need.</p>
<p>The premed requirements are universal for all allopathic medical schools in the United States. Usually the only difference is that some schools will not accept AP credit as a suitable replacement for a class. For example, for med school you need to complete 3 quarters of math, 2 of which have to be calculus. But for some schools (I think UCLA is one), you have to take all of those quarters at a university. So although a 5 on the Math BC exam might get you out of two quarters of calc, they want you to go back and take two more calc classes at a college.</p>
