Two years and 8 months?! How is that possible?

A student in my medical school graduated in 2 years and 8 months.

So, my question: You can actually take the USMLE 1 after 8 months of school and be done with the first two years of school if you passed the USMLE 1 with flying colors?

Still, how is that possible?

Just curious...

Why don't you ask the student, some of his friends, or your faculty? It seems like you are in the best position to answer this questions since you are actually at the school.

I'm curious about that too. . .I know a post-bacc student who got into med school in 2000 and is an MD already. I didn't think itwas possible either.
