With my daughter having to miss this semester due to surgery, she's not going to be able to fit in Biostats (or any other math course) into her senior year schedule. She took Calc 1 her freshman year.
Does the MSAR give info on how many med schools require either statistics or a "year of college math"? I spot-checked a few schools and of the 4 I looked at, 3 of them recommended courses like biostats or stats, but 1 did require a "year of college math" - which means her just having Calc 1 wouldn't suffice since that's only 1 semester. If MSAR does provide it, is there any chance someone can get that info (if that's allowed? I've seen other threads with people post data from MSAR that other posters were asking for)?
Since she's not applying for 2 years (2023) (needs to do 2 gap years now instead of 1 due to missing this semester) I didn't think it made sense to have her subscribe to MSAR this early.
Being that some form of stats is highly recommended (from what we've read) for the MCAT she was going to take it this summer - but at a community college since that's the only thing that is within driving distance. But if a not-insignificant percentage of med schools require it (or the year of math) than she probably shouldn't take it at a CC and should just self-learn it during MCAT prep, and then take officially it after she graduates but at her 4 year university in the fall.
Thanks.
