I hope this is the right section. Will me being 18 upon application (14 when I started college) hurt chances? I promise this isn’t trolling

I can prove that this isn’t a troll post, please please don’t report this post. I go to Mary Baldwin University through their PEG program, you can look it up. As a result of that, I’d graduate at 18. This technically makes me non traditional, I think. I will still have volunteer experience, shadowing, etc. my only difference will be my age. If you need more proof let me know.

It has been done before. Maybe you will find this article helpful Young physicians: What's it like to become a doctor at age 22?

I would think this makes you super traditional

I think non-traditional has more to do with life experience than age.

My med school class had a guy who turned 21 sometime during med school.

Being 18 is not a problem.

Looking young isn't a problem

Coming off as immature will be a problem.

Why not take a gap year (or two) and get some life experience?
