In addition to general graduation requirements at Ball State, students wishing to complete this major must take biology, chemistry, and physics courses that meet or exceed the science requirements for admission to most medical schools. Because admission to a medical school is not guaranteed (only 50 percent of applicants nationwide are admitted to medical schools), each premed student should also complete another major in any subject. The following courses are recommended for elective credit in the first three years: mathematics; CHEM 360 or 463; BIO 213, 214, 215, 492; and ZOOL 347. Students should take the Medical College Admission Test (MCAT) in the spring semester fifteen months before they hope to enroll in medical school and should formally apply for admission to medical school the next summer, twelve months in advance. Premedical counseling is available in the Department of Biology, Room CL 232 or contact Dr. Clare Chatot, 285-8827. MAJOR IN
