[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It should be completely manageable if it’s a priority. If they go to a small school where Orgo I is offered in the first semester only they should be able to take it elsewhere during the summer before studying abroad jr year fall, for example. They could combine that with lab or clinical experience. Their home institution may not give credit for that science class taken elsewhere (bc some schools simply won’t accept outside credits post matriculation) but it would be fine for med school application requirements and mcat prep. In my experience this type of worry results from the pre-med culture at many schools that involves winding each other up about intense/demanding/impossible things are. It’s to opt out of that thinking! [/quote] Medical schools frown upon taking orgo outside home institution. Unless it’s somewhere as rigorous as home institution (not community college!). This is bad advice.[/quote]
