Is it possible to get into SABA right our of highschool?

I have not yet started university here and I do not want to because it is a waste of time and money . (as gettinginto med school here is one of the toughest things in this world).

I have a average of 70% coming out of highschool (due to some bad courses).

I plan to apply for the may 08 session.

Applicants from the United States or Canada who are U.S. citizens or have permanent visas are expected to have a minimum of three years of undergraduate studies or equivalent to 90 semester hours or 135 quarter hours in an accredited college or university. A Baccalaureate degree is recommended but not required. Preference will be given to applicants who have completed a bachelor's degree or higher. Premedical studies should include the following courses

so im guessing the answer is no??

College is not a waste of time and money. You should go to college then try to apply to a US or Canadian school, and if you don't get in then you can apply to Saba. That way you don't have to deal with this IMG bull****.

Plus you grow up a lot during college, which will help you to deal with Saba.

rules of this forum prevent me from insulting you too severely but if i could i would

but to apply to med school one has to take a pre med curriculum, such as orgo, physics, chem, bio, etc; IN COLLEGE. You must be high if your even entertaining the idea of applying to any legitimate med school out of high school and if so, you would fail the saba drug test

it must be. Clearly you have to have university experience. Cell biology, Genetics, Orgo. You just dont learn that stuff in high school.

there are med schools in india that you can go to right out of high school. But i think it takes a little longer

Don't the UK have a 6 year med program? Most programs are highly competitive and a 70 probably will not cut it.
