what are the chances of getting in without a bachelors degree?

I have a 4.0 but haven't taken the MCATS yet. I still have to take Bio and Physics but know both of the profs well and don't anticipate anything less than an A+ in both of those classes.

so... how possible is it????

Unless you are in a 5 year program, schools require a bachelor's degree to matriculate.

which DO schools offer the 5 year program? and are these more or less competetive?

thanks for you help.

When I asked the same question at Western the response was that though the requirements say 90 units, to be competitive you must have a BA/BS.

I know the University of Miami (MD) does not require a bachelors degree, however they strongly recommend one and I believe all of the c/0 2008 have a basic BA or BS degree. I think this is the difference between "College" vs. "School" of medicine, i.e. Schools don't require a bachelors whereas Colleges do (or so I was told by the admissions person at UM last year).

I don't know how this works for DO programs though.
