These PA programs require neither organic chemistry nor biochemistry. Some don't list either course at all; others let you pick a different chemistry or biology class instead, so neither one is required. We checked each program's published prerequisite list, but requirements change from cycle to cycle, so confirm the current list on the program's website before you plan your classes. Looking for a longer list? See every PA school that doesn't require organic chemistry (some of those require biochemistry). Want to see where you can apply with the courses you have?
