basic premed/science subjects

[cookderosa]

Hi All,

need some quick advice.

I need a semester of chemistry, physics and 2 semesters of biology (can be anatomy, life science etc) for a possible pre-med program here in South Africa.
Medicine works differently here and only need these basics.

Have undergrad and MBA already and would like to get these science subjects done as quickly, painlessly and affordably as possible.
Live in South Africa but can qualify for residency in Florida (US Citizen) if that helps.

looked at Excelsior, New England University plus a number of others - just not sure how best to approach.

All advice appreciated.

Thanks, Daniel

The issue with sequential sciences is that they take a long time. The pace-setter on the list you mentioned will be biology. If you can't find accelerated biology sections, then you're looking at 1 year. So, as you start comparing, if you can find 8 week sections, resourceful planning will let you complete them both in 1 semester (8+8=full semester) but you need to find them ASAP. The classes starting in January are filling fast, especially 8-week sessions. Out of curiosity, I checked my local CC and they are already full. So, in my opinion, focus on finding biology first and then add in the others where possible.
Painless? I've got nothing. The sciences I took were pretty painful lol. Good luck and if you find anything, post it here, that's always good info to share.
