BA/MD Programs

I have a scenario that I want to propose.
I was in a BA/MD program (UMKC 6 year program)
I dropped out end of my second year due to difficulties academically and personally (health)
Does this mean I would struggle with any professional program?

Nothing means anything

Perhaps, at least for medical school, your prior matriculation and dropping out would be a red flag, making it tough to get accepted should you decide to apply again. Other professional schools may not care as much.

For this do you think they would take into consideration that this is not a traditional program? There is not much undergraduate learning (we take med biochem and med structure and function at the age of 18/19 as sophomores in college). Because this is not a traditional medical school (there is no MCAT for the 6 year students) do you think other medical schools would think that I would be a weak candidate, even if I improve my GPA? Also, would the courses at other medical schools be just as rigorously challenging? (in the 6 year program we cram everything 8 years of schooling into 6, this includes rotations and year long classes)
