Med School Pereq question? Suggestions Advice!!

Pre-Med & Medical School Pre-Med Topics

<p>Hello, I'm currently a sophomore at a community college located in southern California. I'm majoring in economics since it's a versatile major. If I survive finals this week, my gpa should be a 3.71. I plan on applying to UCLA, UCSB, UCB, and Cal Poly Slo this fall as a junior transfer. I like to plan ahead, so I plan on applying to medical school after obtaining a degree in economics. I already got calculus, psychology, anthropology, philosophy, and plan to move on to calculus two for the upcoming fall semester.</p>

<p>How would you guys try to fit in the chem and bio courses along with classes to deal with your major to your schedules as juniors and seniors?</p>

<p>If not, lets say I got the majority of the pereq done. Will this affect my chances of getting accepted, even if I had a decent gpa (hopefully beyond 3.71) with so so MCAT scores? (worst case scenario)??</p>

<p>I have never heard of anyone getting accepted into Med School without taking Bio, Chem, Org Chem, and Physics.</p>

<p>Nevertheless, take Bio and Chem your junior year. You should be done with biology after junior year and all you are left with is Organic chemistry and physics. You might want to take those two classes your senior year.</p>
