Anyone done a Post Bach pre med program?
I'm just considering all the options if I for some reason decide to goto medical school in the future (I'm in a bachelors PA program right now). I wouldnt do it right away, I'd work a few years pay off some debt and see if I am satisfied with PA or if I really want MD (so many years, such a big decision).

I see Columbia and Yale have them, hmmm

Are they worth the cost you think? Rather than just taking the requirements I'm lacking at say a communitycollege or somewhere cheaper per credit?

Very impressive acceptance rates though and some impressive acceptances from big name schools I noticed.

Check the post-bacc forum. There is a FAQ that adresses some of these questions and there are tons of threads on on Columbia, etc. and whether they are worth it. You can do a search for them. Good luck 🙂

I believe that several post Bach options would be Strauss, Barber, The Beatles, and even Nirvana. I'm sure that other posters can offer their own favorite post Bach choices.
