Pre-Med & Medical School Pre-Med Topics

<p>how in-depth is the biology section on the MCAT? Is it crucial to take other biology courses besides general biology before the MCAT? (ie. microbiology and molecular biology)</p>

<p>Crucial, as in essential, no. You can go in with a basis just from the introductory biology courses. Would the concepts be easier if you take some other biology courses? Sure, but it's not "crucial."</p>

<p>What bio classes do you suggest taking to prep for this section?</p>
