US BSN = to Pre Req's for PI MED schools??

[kardiomegly]

Does anyone know if a BSN from the States is equal to prereq's for PI MED Schools, specifically UERM??

I've e-mailed, called, and tried to have a 3rd party contact the School with out success.

ANY thoughts?? I was gonna take Organic over this semester (winter) at Wayne State University in Detroit, MI. But, out of pocket is $1300. Since it's about 12 years old. Don't know if it's too old.

I got my BSN in 2000 from Michigan State University and have been a travel ICU Nurse, goin into my 8th year.

I just wanna have someone evaluate my transcripts to let me know if I should retake some courses.

Does anyone know how old it too old for science courses?
Does anyone know of any US BSN's goin' in to MED School in the PI?
Should I just take the Organic over this semester? Wanted to take NMAT April 2008, but finals is at the end of the month...and really don't want to fly out for a couple day to the PI then back to Detroit to take finals.

As far as I know the only prerequesite is a Bachelor's degree and NMAT (which you can take in the US).

A nursing background will probably give you a better start in med school that the standard US style pre-med. Most filipino med school students are using nursing or med tech Bachelors as their pre-requisite.
