It shouldn’t matter. Wherever you see yourself performing better. Undergrad institutions have no control over that (unless the associated med. school accepts a lot of its own students).

That reflects the fact that some apply before becoming a senior, and some after graduation.

Also, OMGmom, I hope to enter a graduate program in chemistry or perhaps molecular pharmacology (Drug design is really intriguing to, plus I love organic chemistry). I have no idea where yet and may take a year off to decide where I want to apply. It really depends on if I get the Chem. BS(as opposed to BA) which program I apply to. Right now, I’m slated to get a Bio BS, I’m just not too sure about chemistry. I’ve only been messing around with my classes of interest in the chem. dept (you know, grad. classes, electives). without paying too much attention to requirements, so I still need quantitative and PChem for the BS. However, I am willing to forgo those if I find more interesting courses in the grad. school for either biology or chemistry.

Essentially, I intend to go into academia/research.
