Entering Medical School early ???

[DrSK]

I have heard that some of the school accepts candidate who have completed about 3 years of course work instead of completing full degree. Do you have some information to share with us?

Which are those schools?

Which courses one should complete in first 3 years?

Keep it Up Guys,
Thanks

Probably Canadian schools, there are some that let you apply after 1 or 2 years of undergrad. I don't know of any American schools, unless you're talking about those combined BS/MD programs.

I think Indiana University requires 90 hours of coursework by the time the person starts med school, but they PREFER applicants who will have a degree by the time they matriculate. But if you are OOS, it's tougher to get into IU as they heavily favor instate applicants.

most med schools dont require a degree i think. its just the 90hrs/pre med reqs/mcat. however, most schools have classes that are upwards of 99% people with degrees. if you dont have a degree, you have to be incredible
