As a non-traditional student, is a Post Bac program necessary? Is it easier/cheaper to just take the med school requirements at any university? Does the Post Bac give you advantages in preparing your application or for the MCAT? Do med schools prefer one path over the other?
I took Gen Chem I (A) during undergrad and earned a 3.98 GPA (math major). I have been with Teach for America for 2 years. I have shadowed several physicians (one-full-time for around a month, others were for 1-2 days) and volunteer in a hospital for a few hours here and there. Teaching and coaching keeps me pretty busy during the school year.
