if you only need sciences why do you have to take calculus because i'm not really that good at math but i really want to be a doctor.

@1awkwardgirl At most schools you have to take calculus in undergrad to satisfy graduation requirements for you major. Aside from that, the more complex things you do in undergrad, the less that medical school will shock your brain. Not saying take ALL hard classes, but challenge yourself. Challenge is what medical school basically is :)

Your school should have an pre-professional office and your professors will send the letters to them and they will keep them on file and then submit them to AMCAS whenever it's time. If you don't know where this office is at your school then ask around or ask your science professors, they usually are familiar with it! I hope this helps!
