What is the minimum amount of credits I need to apply to AUA for PreMed or Med program?
Instead of going into a lot of detail, it would be more productive to discuss this with you over the phone.

A couple of things:

1) AUA has no MCAT requirement
2) 90 credits/semester hours is the minimum requirement for placement into Med 1 (along with all of the Premed requirements fulfilled: Bio, Chem, OChem...etc.)
3) GPA is important but not the only factor for admission. Some students with higher GPAs are not accepted. Some students with lower GPAs are accepted.

Call for more details. I will look at some unofficial transcripts if you would like. Let me know.

Mr. Carlson
