The biggest problem for students in the life sciences is grades, PERIOD!!!
If you have a 3.8 in the sciences and never took calculus, you can get in
grad school, and at worse they will ask you to take it then. If you have a
2.6 gpa and took calculus, and earned an A, you are still going to face a
Still more fascinating commentary on this thread. I hope I don't come
across as too much of a Luddite, but I am a simple person. Yes, I do think
it is important to understand the expansions of dN/dt, but (and this is
where I am so simple minded) I really want to know what N is and how you
got it.

For the last four years, I have been working on a new Math for Life
Scientists course at UCLA that our life sciences majors can take (along
with a stats course) instead of the usual Calculus for Life Sciences
sequence. This course dives right into dynamical modeling, with students
learning how to w
