High School Math-- interest in Medical Field?

Question

For my last high school math credit, I have to choose between calculus and statistics. I'm more interested in taking statistics but i've heard that calculus will be a required class anyways to eventually go into the medical field... Could anyone tell me which would be the best pick or whether it matters or not. Thanks in Advance!

Answer 1

calculus is a building block so take it!!!

Answer 2

Take calculus!!!  Statistics you can take in college, and the pace will be much more interesting.  The sooner you get calculus under your belt, the sooner you can take stuff that depends on it.
