Graduate school admission question (easy question)
For admission into some grad school programs they say you require this..
A full or half credit in one biological or life science course with a grade of B or 75% or 3.0/4 or 8/12 or higher.
Is there a list of courses that fit that category? Or is it just Bio, Chem, Physics or does it include enviro sci or psych?
Thanks

You should ask the school you're applying to. A life sci at Mac doesn't mean it's a Life Sci in all other schools.

Usually life science courses are courses dealing with life systems, like biology and biochemistry. A lot of the stuff on that "Life Sciences I Course List" are not considered to be actually life sciences (e.g. physics and chemistry are physical sciences).
Definitely double check with the school if you are not sure.
