should a pre med take the AP 5 bio track?

<p>kparcell, when you get to Chicago in September, you will get to talk to an advisor and a CCHP pre-med advisor, and they will help you make certain that you understand what the requirements are (and also what the best path through them for you is). But they are generally pretty simple – what gravitas2 said above, plus a year of math. </p>

<p>Probably the only tricky thing is that, if you are going to be a Bio major, they invite you to substitute a specific bio-oriented stats course (required) for the third quarter of any of the basic calculus sequences. Will that work for medical school? Probably. All of them? Hmmmm . . . That’s a question worth asking. But unless you completely place out of Core math, it’s not a question you really need to have answered before your first quarter. </p>

<p>All of that said, let me point out that if you “just want[] to be sure,” an internet chat board is not the right place to go. The right place to go is your pre-med advisor, and doing your own research on the websites of a variety of medical schools, where their (current) requirements will be stated with some precision.</p>
