There are a lot of BS/MD and accelerated Dental programs out there other than at the top schools (like Brown). Drexel (BS/MD),Univeristy of the Pacific (5 year dental program), etc. But i have not even heard of these schools before. My question is, what are the advantages/disadvantages of these programs compared to your average 4yr undergrad+4 yr dental/medical school programs. Thanks.

I'm not sure why you're asking about dental programs in this particular forum, unless you are undecided.

If you want some good info on accelerated programs, check out the Aspire forum (http://forums.studentdoctor.net/forumdisplay.php?f=420) for high school students, particularly check out the the BS/MD FAQ style thread (http://forums.studentdoctor.net/showthread.php?t=531615).

This question is probably best answered in the Aspire forum.

Moving there and then answering.

ok, I was going to link to the FAQ that humid linked to...
