Hi, I have a question that’s related to all this.
I majored in Architecture my sophomore year at MIT (I am now away for a year on medical leave) because I wanted to explore my artistic side.
Ironically, I am now a Bio major and I’ll be taking classes starting this fall.
However, due to MIT’s curriculum, I’ve taken a semester of chemistry, a year of physics, a year of calculus and I’ll be working on my English/Humanities later. Now, these classes were taken on a pass/no record grading system. How will med schools take this into account? Will I have to send them a formal transcript?
Also, while majoring in Arch. for one year, I took an Intro to Bio class during that time. I got a C. Now, y’all saying what you’re saying about how they divide up those subjects into a science/non-science partitions or what have you…I’m really getting scared.
Also, I’m studying for the April MCAT.
if y’all have some inkling about this, I’d duly appreciate some info.
