6 years **/MD program ?

If you enroll from pre-med 1, I think I can get my MD degree in 6 years ?

4 years for undergrad+basic science and 2 years for clinical rotaion ?

Am I getting the right idea ?

Thanks for your reply.

So then I guess it would be 7 years then since clinical rotation is right after MS2 ?

Correct, 7 years-3 years Pre-Med/Vet then 4 years of med/vet.

Are you thinking of applying?

Oh, I didnt realize this included under grad. This is the program I am interested in. I am considering finishing my bachelors of managment in the states and then transfering into the second year. My grades are very bad, Im hoping that if I do stellar in my last 15 credits and then do very well in my sciences that they will take me.

I don't see why they wouldn't take you, especially if you finish your BA/B.Sc. (they took me after all, lol! Let's just say that no one really goes to the university I attended in order to obtain 5 star grades )

You might have a surprise-they may take you in to the third year.

Have you taken O Chem and Physics? Those classes I would say you'd be better off taking in the US, especially if you could do them in a summer program or on-line.

I realize this is an old post but I am actually about to finish my bachelors in business managment this semstester and was interested in the SGU Pre Med program.
I figure it would take me about a year and a half to finish all the science Pre reqs in the US any way, I know I would do much better around others who are studying for the same goal.
My Gpa is low for previous personal reasons, I was curious If I could get into PreMed1 with a gpa that will not be much higher than 2.0.
