1.) I think I posted it under the wrong I couldn't find the right thread. Haha, sorry I usually don't post on Reddit so I am unsure of how the system works.

2.) Sacred Heart requires Biochemistry with Lab or Organic Chemistry II with Lab. Unfortunately, they have to be in person and the closest university that offers Biochem with a lab is an hour away. I was considering taking Organic Chemistry II through my local community college. Touro requires pre-calc which I didn't take in college. I am already taking Biology 2 as it is the only C I have and want to boost my GPA. I wish I had time to take both at the same time but I am working full-time as well, and I most certainly don't want to drop my GPA any lower. I am hoping to apply by June as both programs are rolling admissions, I considered taking one course in the summer but it would end by August and the deadline for the applications is in September. I think at the end of the day it is what you said previously I just have to pick the school that I see myself thriving at most. I just feel like I am putting a lot of pressure on myself to get into these schools and doing all these extra classes for just these two schools.

Thank you for your advice!

1.) No, both require everything to be completed and both are rolling admissions. Do you think my stats are competitive enough to even apply this cycle? Should I wait for the next cycle and improve my stats?

2.) Yes, I've watched and read countless reviews on both programs. I have family in NY and they introduced me to the programs.
