Which medical schools offer early clinical exposure?

I am aware of duke, mayo and baylor however, what are some other schools?

Also, which schools have offer a "varied" clinical experience? Meaning students have the opportunity to see a variety of patients and ailments. I was thinking of the NY & NJ schools because of their diverse populations.

Thanks

pretty much all the schools brag about some type of early clinical exposure. i've been warned by people already in med school, though, that this is not really as important or meaningful as it seems. :shrug:
 
Early clinical exposure as a selling point is ridiculous. Every school has it and many times it comprises busy work like write ups that eat study time.

I guess I meant to ask, which schools have a reduced pre-clinical curriculum such as duke and baylor? I'm interested in schools who begin their rotations early.

Columbia, starting with the class of 2014. 1.5 years preclinical, then straight into clinical rotations.
 
NYU, starting either with class of 2014 or 2015
 
Bump.

Duke
Baylor
Columbia
NYU
