Hello,
Just wondering if anyone has decided to take the requirement classes a la carte as opposed to a more formal Post Bacc program and if they were successful in getting into med school.
Pros of a DIY program:
- More flexible for the non-trad student
- In some cases, considerably less expensive
Pros of a formal Post Bacc:
- Pre medical advisement
- Structured classes
- Recommendation letters easier to obtain?
Generally speaking, one could just take courses at any accredited college and take the MCATs?
Any information would be much appreciated! Thanks in advance!
