I would pick the option that makes you most happy and makes financial sense.

Just wanted to chime in and say that if you are accepted to a BS/MD it’s highly likely that you would be as successful doing the traditional route. The point of most of these programs is to attract highly qualified students who would have gone elsewhere had they went the traditional route. So don’t be too intimidated by going the traditional route if you choose to. Also, make sure that you have done a lot of research on the med schools before you commit to a BS/MD. I didn’t realize a lot of the differences between schools when I had applied in high school, but I wasn’t as motivated as you! Good luck!! 🙂

I would only go to a bs/md program for at least a top 50 medical school- b/c reputation matters when you apply for residency. otherwise, the traditional route is better and gives you more options for medical schools
