Sorry if this thread is long, its just I need some advice on how I should go about my undergraduate career and apply to med school. I am currently a high school senior who takes college classes at a community college in Oklahoma City. After high school I plan on attending the oklahoma city community college for a year and half, and after that attending Oklahoma University. I have a plan laid out that I hope to follow, any advice on this plan would be helpful. Plan on taking MCAT During Soph II Semester and Applying to OU Med School With 102 hours. The minimum is 90 hours and I would have taken all the requirements. My question is would they admit me with most of my classes at a community college, but on track to graduate with a Bachelors in Zoology at OU. I know ALL the classes transfer to OU. Questions:
Is this courseload too hard? I know I can handle alot, should I take more hours in a semester? Would a med school admit me if i took a lot of classes at a community college and made straight A's or like a 3.9, and did well on the MCAT? Should I wiat to apply to med school? When is the best time to apply? Any suggestions or criticism made on this would be extremely helpful. Also any revised plans would be really good, thank you
