[Please review/edit my Statement of Purpose (cell & mol bio + microbiology)]

It seems in poor taste to list all of the negatives of a biomedical career in your statement of purpose.

Hi thegrayude, I'd like to take a look at your SoP. I am applying to biomedical science graduate schools with a double major in economics and biology and wanted to discuss with you how best to address our unrelated economic/financial/business experiences. Let me know!

[Dropped Organic Chemistry]

Thanks for the reply, Monochrome Spring!

I have checked the prerequisites for my schools and only one lists specifically a full year of organic chemistry.

I am worried more so now about biochemistry as they all say it should be apart of completed coursework.

I plan on calling the coordinators of the programs because I have lab experience with biochemistry and most of my upper division classes touched on biochemistry (cell biology, animal phys, molecular basis of diabetes, etc.). But I did not ever take the specific general biochemistry course my university offered.

I am hoping the biochem subject test will be enough to prove I am competent in biochem without having taken the course.

Did you get a resolution on this? I'm in the same boat, have never taken biochemistry at my university but am familiar with it through labwork.
