how would you get permission to skip Biology 1? Can anyone do it?

For example, if you are trying to do anatomy and physiology in 2nd year (both require 2 units of bio at first year), then you go to the coordinators of anatomy and physiology and get them to sign a prereq waiver form. Of course, they will only sign it if they think you are capable of doing their subject without the prereqs. Having a high score in one bio, or other reasons you may give (maybe you studied lots of bio for GAMSAT etc) will help.

Hey was wanting to post this course map the other day for those who want to major in Physics and satisfy the prerequisites for medicine. A coordinator sent this to me back in 2009 so just use this as a rough guideline

This is no longer possible due to the revised rules from 2011. In that plan, the person does only 4 level 3 sciences, whereas now you have to do 6 (which means 2 breadth must be converted to 2 third year sciences). Which is usually fine for most people anyway, although I believe the OP wanted to keep all 6 breadth which is what made it difficult.
