Hello there,

 

Yes, anatomy and physiology would be considered sciences courses by most reasonable folks. To be certain though, you should check with the schools to which you are applying. You don't want to be bitten in the bum unsuspectingly.

 

Cheers,

Anatomy and physiology are science courses. One caveat though: make sure you supplement these required science/non-science lecture references with 3 other solid references also. Especially if you went to a big school, most of these required references are written generically and doesn’t offer much insight. At almost every US medical school (very few exceptions) you can send up to 5 references. Having groin-grabbingly worthy reference letters can come in handy, especially if you are competing against similar applicants .
