Deciding between 2 Masters programs - need help
Hi all. Coming off an unsuccessful app cycle, I decided to apply for a few SMPs to improve my application and build some new connections. I thought I'd be fortunate to get into even 1 one of the programs for which I applied, and I officially heard last Fri that I was accepted at both. One is the MS in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology at Tulane, which has a great track record for med school matriculation, and a myriad of resources available. The other is a more experimental MA in... Read more (Source: Student Doctor Network)

Potential missing pre-req question
I was recently accepted to the University of Wisconsin School of Medicine. However, I am concerned I may not meet one of the pre-requisite requirements. The specific course was second semester general biology. My major was in Cell and Molecular Biology and I took many courses in the biological sciences including a genetics course. In fact my degree program used the genetics course in place of a second semester general bio course. Will my offer be rescinded because of this? Should I contact...
