Hey everyone, I was browsing through medical school websites, and I came across University of Virginia Medical school requirements. They don't require you to take science pre-reqs. I am not saying that it is going to be an easy task for anyone to get into this school, but for non-traditional older student this can be a great time saver.
If one can score really good on MCATs by self studying, do you guys think they have a shot, given that they did good in their prior undergrad degree. Are there any schools that will consider students with just a bachelor degree and a good MCAT score in U.S, without fulfilling the science coursework.
My intent is to find some answers, I do not in any way or form believe that pre-reqs are unnecessary, they do provide a great science foundation. But I just had to ask this.
