What medical schools offer combined undergraduate and medical school programs that last 6 years instead of 8?
I’d like to become a physician, and according to me research, there are medical school programs that last 6 years (in comparison w/ 4 year undergrad and 4 year med) that accept students who’ve completed high school. Which schools are these??
There are 35 schools that offer the combined degree program. I’ve provided the link to the Association of American Medical Colleges list.
There are some things you should know. Most of these programs are 7 years–3 years of undergrad and 4 years of med school. Most of the programs are quite small–around 10 students. Getting accepted into a program is difficult, but remaining in one is even more difficult. Maintaining an exceptionally high GPA without faltering is the usual standard.
theres no short cuts to med school. you are going to have to dedicate at least 10 years of your life.
