Hi all!
I recently decided to take a gap year(s). I want to fill that time with a masters/postbacc program. I am open to said program being 1-2 years long. I ideally want to find programs that have affiliations and guaranteed interviews/acceptance into their med school so long as I meet their requirements. I am open to both MD and DO.

I wanted to reach out on here as I am having trouble navigating and finding schools that meet what I am looking for.

Thanks in advance 🙂
 
There is generally no comprehensive list of these programs that is available, you're going to need some exploring yourself. You could look in this thread for some others' experiences: **Rate your SMP & Postbac**

I will also comment that many of these programs require a minimum MCAT threshold for guaranteed acceptance. I've seen you post a few times about your process of preparing for the MCAT, so I just wanted to say out of the gate that there likely isn't a program that will allow you to completely avoid the need to retake the MCAT.
