I was told though by my pre med adviser that I could take math classes at other schools. Only the science classes should be taken at the home school but Calculus is very commonly taken over the summer. That’s what she told me and I know a lot of pre med students who did the same.



Columbia09, just curious but do you go to Columbia? Things could have changed but DD was a pre-med at Columbia a few years back and that is not what she was advised. They wanted a very good reason for taking any pre-med reqs away from Columbia during the summer…and not just to create some breathing room by getting some classes out of the way or to save some $$. At the time I had the impression that one is supposed to show that they can handle the heavy course load by slugging through the pre-med stuff from Sept - May.
