3. That’s a terrible reason…if it were even true. There are so many courses that can replace OChem. Dude…there’s been an entire thread debating the worthiness of the class, and I really don’t feel like rehashing it here.

I agree there should be other courses to judge premed students. But, i heard that is one of the reasons why they put ochem to begin with after talking to some physicians.



2. OMG learn to read.

I am just qualifying what you wrote. Your premed coursework is still important to get into med school. [regardless if its important to become a doctor, sadly speaking]



Also, are you agreeing with the other posters that if the OP goes to a different school and gets weeded out, then he “can’t handle” being a doctor? Even if he’s going to excel in his current school?

If he/she gets weeded out, he/she wont even get into med school period. however the part where he “cant handle being a doctor” i disagree.

Look all im trying to say is if the op was able to get into a bs/md program and do well in it, most likely the op will do well in top private and get into med school. So if the op is seriously unhappy with the program and school, i think the OP can consider transferring.
