I know it's supperrrrr uncommon, and is very rare to do - but does anyone know of anyonr (or did you) transfer between med schools? What was the reason? Just curious nothing more.

I know someone who did and it was for family-related reasons after his 2nd year.

Do you know from which school he transferred out of and into which other?

Oh that I completely forgot but he moved from somewhere in the southeast to Florida.

Obviously it was super hard... But it does happen?

At my school, it has happened perhaps 5x in my ~ 18 years of teaching.

It's close to impossible for the first two years, unless one is willing to re-start at OMSI. I surmise it might be more doable after Boards.

Yeah that's what i figured. Just curious. But even then you gotta have stellar board scores.
