Has anyone gotten into a Biochem graduate program without a physical science major?

[mdheadley12]

I'm just trying to find out if someone has gotten into a biochemistry graduate program without a chemistry or biology undergraduate major. What steps did they take to prepare themselves for the graduate program? What was the experience like?

I know someone with a history undergrad degree and did a 2-year MA in biology and got in the biochem program here

I know someone with a bachelor's in psychology and a minor in biochemistry who is almost finished with a biochemistry PhD.

If you dont have a bachelor's degree in physical sciences, as long as you accumulate enough credits in Chemistry curriculum & have some research experience (during your postbacc), you can get accepted to Chemistry PhD programs. Many older students I know have done it.
