Hello,
I'm moving to the Bay Area next year and would like to do my post-bacc work out there. Specifically, I need to take biology, inorganic and organic chemistry, and physics. I'm not really interested in a formal, structured postbacc program and plan to take the classes a few at a time while I work part-time.
My questions:
1) Is it possible to take premedical classes at Cal-Berkeley through the Extension program? I seem to be getting mixed messages about that. I know you -can- take classes in this manner, but has anyone successfully done all of his/her sciences there as a post-bacc/extension student?
2) Has anyone gone to (or is anyone currently in) SFSU for these classes?
3) How does someone like me go about getting a letter of recommendation if there isn't a prehealth committee available, or if the support of such a committee isn't available to non-degree seeking students?
Thanks so much for your help. Sorry if I don't get back right away; I'm only online at work (and pretty new to the posting thing, though I think this site is great).
