Hello future and current doctor e-peoples, this is my first post so I shall try to make it brief and to the point.
I am a career changer with a BS in Business.....I am about to start a do-it-myself postbacc at my local university in the Spring. My goal is to be accepted into a med school in order to graduate in the class of 2021. Anyways, my question is regarding the "Glide Year" ....I know ordinarily it is considered nearly impossible to avoid without a formal postbacc with linkage if I were to start in the Fall of 2015. However, since I am starting in Spring 2015 will the extra semester afford me the time needed to accomplish my goal of acceptance into the class of 2021?
In Summary - 5 full semesters and 2 summers of classes (from Spring 2015-Spring 2017)
Is this enough to avoid a glide year or will I have to sit out until class of 2022?
Thanks you all for your insight
