I am thinking for going back to medical school, but I need to take a few pre-reqs. No problem. However, I have most of my pre-reqs are from 9 to 19 years ago. They will be 11 to 21 years old by the time I apply. A few were As but most were Bs or Cs.
MAIN QUESTION: Should I bother retaking them? Or should I just finish off a second degree in 3 years in biology and take upper-level science classes? Both options would take just as long.
1st college - chem major (did not graduate)
Calc I F
Calc I (retake): C
Physics 1: C
Orgo 1: A-
Orgo 2: C+
Orgo Lab: C
Advanced Orgo: A-
Orgo Reseearch: A
Chem 1: B- (must retake since I need two-semester inorganic sequence)
Do I really need to take take organic chemistry? I would rather focus on upper level molecular biology/genetics classes.
2nd college - applied math major (graduated)
Physics 1: C+
Physics 2: C+
Calc I (retake): C
Calc II: A
Calc III: C+
Linear Algebra: B+
Diff Equations: A-
Probability Theory: F
Probability Theory (retake): C
Applied Prob & Stats/Math Computation: A
Mathematical Statistics: B+
English 1: A
English 2: A
I'll be dammed if I have to take Calc I for a FOURTH time! I wouldn't mind retaking Calc III again though. Retake freshman English? lol
