<p>Summer sessions are your friend if you are a premed trying to jam through all the prereqs to support early MCATs. that way you don’t overload in any particular semester. </p>
<p>Med schools tend to not accept AP credit for their requirements - thus if a med school wanted one year of calculus (which most do not, by the way), you would NOT meet that with Math 1B, a stats course and AP credit.</p>
<p>What you will find frustrating is that each medical school is able to define their own requirements and are not all that consistent with each other. The only commonality is the requirement for one year of general chemistry, one year of organic chemistry, one year of biology, and one year of physics. </p>
<p>There are 161 medical schools in the US, the pre-med student would find that the majority do not have a calculus requirement, those that do may only have a requirement for one year of college math which might be a semester of calc and a semester of statistics, some require statistics, and a small number want a full year calc. They also vary in terms of what they will accept - some few allow AP, others do not. Sometimes their requirements are ambiguous; the student may need to write to or call the school to validate that they will meet the requirements with their planned coursework. It can come down to perusing the requirements of each school that you might send an application. </p>
<p>Here is a GREAT source of information for pre-meds. You could be reading from now straight through until the first day of Fall classes, there is so much here [Student</a> Doctor Network Forums | An educational community for students and doctors spanning all the health professions.](<a href=“http://■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■/]Student”>http://■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■/)</p>
