<p>So I am going to be entering U of MD in the fall for chemical engineering. I plan to take this course in the fall: Physics</a> 171 -Spring 2007</p>
<p>It has no lab component. I've only checked a few med school requirements, but none require physics labs. So is this class fine for fulfilling physics reqs?</p>
<p>pchem should count towards your inorganic requirement. </p>
<p>not all med school require physics lab, but there are enough that do for you to consider taking a physics class with a lab or taking a physics lab separately from your physics class.</p>
<p>Your later physics courses do have labs and they will satisfy the requirements if needed for certain schools. Schools don't mandate that you MUST have a lab for the first course you take for a particular requirement, hence the reason why med schools will take AP credits for Bio and Chem as long as you take upper division courses in those departments.</p>
