prepastudent54 Posted November 13, 2023 Share Posted November 13, 2023 My university (in the U.S) does not offer 2 semesters of gen bio the way most schools do, instead the sole gen/intro bio option is a one semester course called introduction to cellular and molecular biology (it is super fast paced and i think is essentially all of gen bio in one semester). After, we take a one semester gen bio lab the following semester. We have to take the course a semester before the lab, we are not allowed to take them at the same time and once again the bio lab is only a semester long. I am confused at what to do about this because nearly all PA schools require 2 semesters of gen bio w/ lab and my university simply does not have it. I am taking genetics this upcoming semester (the second semester of my second year, and next year I will take one semester microbiology with lab along w 2 semesters of A&P w/lab). I'm pre PA and not sure what to do about my school not having a 2 semester gen bio w/ lab course, if anyone has advice I'd love to hear it.

ohiovolffemtp Posted November 14, 2023 Share Posted November 14, 2023 Speak to an academic advisor at your school and ask what the 1st year biology sequence biology majors and/or pre-med majors take. That will be what you need. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
