Notes:
General track is designed for students who do not plan to pursue a graduate program in a health profession  
If planning to pursue a graduate degree: To ensure all prerequisite requirements are met, students should research prerequisites for each graduate program they plan on applying to.  
Math requirements vary from school to school; confirm highest math  
GRE timing: recommend taking at start of summer JR year; if needed can study over summer & retake before applications due  
*If only 1 math must be taken, add 1 extra KIN elective required
*Students who take Math 110 will only be eligible to take CH 104.
**For students pursuing a minor: Only 3 courses used to meet KIN degree requirements can double count to meet minor course requirements.
