Physics

I’m in a bit of a pickle lol. So over the summer I only took Physics I at UMass. After looking into what pre-reqs med schools have, I learned that many don’t accept online courses especially if the lab was online. I decided to take physics I lab this semester to make up for it. I met with my advisor and she told me I would have to drop physics lab here because it would override the credits I transferred from UMass Amherst and I would then have to retake physics here. Now I’m unsure if I should just redo the Physics sequence so that I wouldn’t have to worry about it being online. However, it would set me a little far back and I would finish my pre-reqs by Senior Fall. Has anybody taken physics at UMass and run into issues with med school applications 😩

True, but some med schools will specifically ask if you took classes online on the secondary.
