<p>Are you hoping to apply to an American medical school? If yes, have you taken the pre-med courses? If you haven't taken the pre-med courses, there are universities that offer a post-bachelor pre-med program.</p>
<p>If you have taken the pre-med courses, maybe you could start working on a MS or a PhD to fulfill that minimum 1 year requirement (I think some medical schools offer a MD/MS program, so I guess you could start the MS portion, then apply into that program.)</p>
<p>pre-medical courses !!!</p>
<p>oh - nah I just have a bachelor degree in chemistry - minor bio.</p>
<p>how long r those medical courses in the us. i mean its duration ????</p>
<p>thanks alot CDN_Dancer for ur concer , that means alllllooooot to me</p>
<p>Pre med courses</p>
<p>A year of Freshman Chemistry along with the appropriate laboratory courses
A year of Organic Chemistry along with laboratory courses
A year of Biology along with laboratory courses
A year of Physics along with laboratory courses
A year of English
A year of Calculus or other advanced math classes, including Statistics </p>
<p><a href="http://www.bestpremed.com/preMDreq.php%5B/url%5D">http://www.bestpremed.com/preMDreq.php</a> has some more information about becoming a doctor. What you're probably going to want to look for is a Postbaccalaureate Premedical Program to complete the pre-med requirements.</p>
<p>why do I have to take that and I already have Bsc in chemistry</p>
<p>Have you taken all of those courses? I'm guessing that you've already fulfilled and exceeded the biology and organic/inorganic chemistry requirements, and most likely the calculus one as well. Have you take the 1 year of English and Physics?</p>
<p>Those are the minimum courses that all medical schools in the US require applicants to have before applying. You'll also be required to take the MCAT (Medical College Admissions Test), and the MCAT tests information that you would learn in the courses listed above.</p>
<p>By the way, there's a pre-med forum that you could go to for some more help: <a href="http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/forumdisplay.php?f=480%5B/url%5D">http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/forumdisplay.php?f=480</a></p>
<p>yeah I have taken all of those courses "dunno if General Physics I ,II " are considered as 1 yr physics.</p>
<p>after all .. Do I have to take a pre-medical course in the US
Is getting accepted to college of medicine is impossible if am from foriegn college ??</p>
<p>Um, you have taken organic chemistry, calculus, biology, general chem and basic physics, yes? Those are the only real requirements to get admitted into med school. More importantly though, what UG college are you at and what is your MCAT score?</p>
<p>As I posted earlier, most medical schools will require you (or highly recommend) to complete one year of study in the US (if you graduated from a foreign university) I guess you could start working on your Master's degree, or another degree, and prepare for the MCAT exam at the same time.</p>
