onmywaytobeapa 1 Posted February 19 Share Posted February 19 For those accepted, congratulations!! That is such an amazing accomplishment and you should be so proud of yourselves! If you don't mind me asking, how long were you given to accept/decline the admission offer? Just curious as to how long individuals who were waitlisted should expect the earliest to hear back would be regarding spot availability. Thank you in advance and congratulations again! 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

alysd 152 Posted yesterday at 07:04 AM Share Posted yesterday at 07:04 AM (edited) Hey folks! Sorry to interrupt the discussion, but I have a question for those that have been admitted thus far. Were any of you lacking in the 'upper division bioscience courses" suggestion/requirement? I'm planning to apply to Stanford for the coming 2021-2022 cycle (I applied in 2019-2020 but was rejected and didn't reapply again this past year), and some of their admissions details have changed since then. I've taken 2 upper (Histology and Biochemistry), along with several other lower (Microbiology, intro Genetics, Human Bio, General Bio, etc). I know that they state that all these courses are suggested rather than required, but I wanted to consult this forum to see if anyone has actually been admitted that didn't have 3 or more upper division bioscience. Thank you Edited yesterday at 08:39 AM by alysd Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Thank you Hi!! I was admitted for this upcoming cohort. I am a Biology major, so I had a lot of Sciences. I took embryology, cell biology, endocrinology,genetics, histology, immunology, microbiology, molecular biology, and organic chemistry. I hope this helps. Good luck!!

Mostly looking to hear if anyone who’s been admitted did so with less than 3 upper division bioscience. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Thank you Hi! I was admitted this cycle and don't know if this will help you, but I only took Neurophysiology, Genetics and Microbiology. The other classes I took in addition to my Bachelor's were medical terminology, Stats and the second part of Gen Chem. My Bachelors is in Kinesiology, so I definitely don't have an abundance of upper division science courses. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Most of it was chemistry. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I was just apprehensive about applying if that element was a dealbreaker. I know programs typically just list their bare minimums, but those actually admitted often exceed that. In addition to A&P the sciences I’ve taken are Microbiology, Inorganic Chem, Organic/Biochem combo, straight Biochem, Histology, Genetics (intro), Current Issues in Biology, Nutrition, Medical Terminology, Human Bio, & General Bio. (Plus Statistics & College Algebra for math.) Only Histology & Biochem were technically upper division, though I think Micro counts too. Many of these were introductory level coursework so I know that doesn’t put me at an advantage against Bio majors, but, I think I’ll at least take the shot and apply.
