<p>no one is saying you can’t get into med school if you do it, but your question was “will it impact my application in a negative way.” The only way it won’t is if you take it at NW and then take lots of upper level science classes and get As in those. Maybe you can still get away with the lower level at Creighton if you’re taking upper level at NW and getting As, but if you just take your 1 year of bio at Creighton and call it a day it will undoubtedly look bad. Depending on the rest of your application this could simply mean you don’t get into a top 5 school and end up at a top 10 school or it pushes you over the edge from borderline applicant to no admission anywhere.</p>
<p>Bottom line, if it looks like you’re doing it for the reason you stated here (because they are “the two most notorious pre-med classes here”), it WILL hurt your chances without a doubt.</p>
