I've noticed that most postbacc programs are 1-2 years long. I am genuinely curious if it is even possible to prepare everything (prereqs, mcat, volunteer work, clinical experience, research, etc.) within 1-2 years? Like most traditional students spend 4 years in undergrad or even more than that to build up their stats.
I was able to contact a few nontraditional students, and they all already had some sort of health-related experience (e.g. a health-related career like a nurse, personal trainer, healthcare/public health analyst, previous psych major with undergrad clinical research experiences, etc.) prior to starting postbacc programs.
For those who are COMPLETE career-changers (e.g. coming from an engineering background), is it still possible or feasible within 2 years, starting from 0?
