[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A trend now is to take OChem in the summer at a community college and then repeat it at your 4-year.  You aren't using the CC class for credit, but to prepare you to get a good grade in the one that matters.[/quote]

you have to submit the CC grade to med school apps. NOT a good look, at all.[/quote]How would you be forced? How would medical school even know you did?[/quote]. It is called integrity. No one who has to audit orgo and lie about it should be a doctor. Most likely those who do will not be able to get a good mcat score anyway. Reading the text in advance, doing extra problems, going to office hours and putting a lot of study time in is plenty to at least get a B-, a below average grade, in orgo, for anyone who has the level of thinking needed to become a physician.

How is a B- a “below average grade”? By definition, a C is average and orgo is most often graded on a curve. [/quote]
No school curves orgo to a 2.0.  None.  Mine was very anti-grade inflation and curved to a 2.6 GPA.  Most top schools curve to a 3.2 or even a 3.3, so above a B.[/quote]
