It's all good RG3.....Andrews did my surgery 3 weeks ago I'm already walking[/background]

@TheReal_CDUB I'm in recovery hopefully I run in 4months but we will see

Looks like Dr. James Andrews did his ACL surgery and all went well. Good to see that JMoore had the best possible treatment. Should be stronger than he was before. [/background]

If he is a pre-med major, it may be a blessing in disguise; this will give him time to concentrate on his academics. Next year he may have to take organic chemistry, physics and comparative anatomy...whew!

Hater.

Olabode been spittin words... finna hit the crock pt. He speaks in a language that isn't rmeotely close to english. It's remarkable. The tweet below ont he other hand, is somewhat readable.

Not hating... it's entertaining. You've made my point quite eloquently. hahaha

Why would a pre-med have to take physics? You mean maybe physiology?

Also, nobody willingly takes killer courses like organic chemistry. physiology, and comparative anatomy all at the same time.

Physics is a required prerequisite for med school and is tested heavily on the MCAT, so yes he has to take it.

People who wish to go to medical school do. Those are just a handful of the tough science courses, so in order to fit them all in, many take this type of course load fairly routinely. You can try and spread them out, but most are science majors, so all of these tough courses plus the prerequisites pile up so that they can't always be spread out. Mine were not.

Besides that, another good corrective post there, Deep.

Keep on doing your thing

Back in the day (1960's) the usual science load for pre-med/pre-dental was: Freshman year, calculus both semesters, general chemistry(for science majors) both semesters, general biology one to two semesters, in addition to core courses like English, etc. Sophomore year, second year calculus both semesters, physics (for science majors) both semesters, organic chemistry both semesters, comparative anatomy (some schools had two semesters, some one), then core courses. Physiology was for year 3 or 4.
Don't know how much that has changed. The real thinning-out courses were organic chemistry and comparative anatomy.

I transferred in after two years of basics, so I had almost nothing left to take but math and science courses for my major and a handful of history/religion/honors colloqium classes.
One of my organic chem instructors was very blunt. The class started with 60-70 people. I believe 5 people passed the first exam (luckily, I was one of them). He told the class that if you did not pass, you need to reconsider your plans of being a doctor. He was harsh. Many did reconsider and the class shrunk considerably over the next week or so. I actually liked organic chem better than all of my other sciences, so it was not the toughest class for me. Calculus, for some reason, caused more frustration than any other class at TCU. I had a weak math background and it just really challenged me. For the same reason, I liked organic chem better than general chem (less math). Physics was heavy on the math as well, but I enjoyed it more than calculus.
I really didn't click with my calculus instructor, so that probably played into it a bit.
All that being said, TCU has a great pre-med program and has a very high success rate for admission to med school if you can make it through the grind of the pre-med curriculum.

For the love of God we need a doctor's forum. They've come out of the woodwork lately with all this doctor talk.

I wasn't trying to be snarky in stating that. Just clarifying that it is actually more common than one might think, since most pre-meds are science majors. It makes sense to be a science major since med school prerequisites are 16 hours of Chem (almost halfway to a major) and about 12 hours of biology (very close to a minor). For me, it made sense to get a chem major and a biology minor since I was close to both.
