Pre-Medical Pathway in Chemistry
A Bachelor of Science (BS) or Bachelor of Arts (BA) in Chemistry with a Pre-Health concentration provides a strong foundation in key courses relevant to the MCAT and medical school admissions. Both degrees develop critical thinking and problem-solving skills, making chemistry majors highly competitive applicants to medical school.
The BS or BA in Chemistry Pre-Health degree tracks provide students with a direct path to medical school, equipping them with built-in pre-medical course requirements, flexible elective options, and a manageable 6th-semester course load for MCAT preparation.
