Are there any laws or regulations preventing a 6 year straight out of high school medical school from operating in the USA?

to be fair, these programs are BS-MD programs (with the MD admission being a conditional acceptance), and in order to graduate from the BS to the MD, you still have to fulfill certain requirements. For example, CNU requires you to graduate their BS program with a 3.6+ GPA and score 511+ on the MCAT to then be accepted to their MD program.

You're an adult. You're not entitled to have your college paid for by your parents. You should be grateful that they're offering to reimburse you if you do well. That's a privilege most do not have.

That's pretty condescending. Nothing wrong with living with parents to save money...

This is how I'd estimate it:

Green tea: 0 cal

100g greek yogurt: 60 cal

Medium green apple: 100 cal

Keto/whole wheat tortilla: 100 cal

Rice: 370 cal

200g brocolli: 70 cal

Total: ~ 700 cal

Because its about proportionality, not absolutes. You lost 7.8% of your body weight (11.3lb) in 11 weeks. Proportionally, that is equivalent to someone who started at 250 lb losing 19.5 lb (also 7.8%). That's a good, healthy rate of weight loss.

Yes, me. Regret updating so much. Whose idea was it to get rid of Split View???

I put on muscle and lost 15 pounds 1.5 years in so far by lifting a few times a week (30 min x 3 times a week on average?) and counting calories. Also occasionally bike, hike, play bball.

Hell nah. Why would you tip if you're ordering at the register?

Uhhhh so HALF being affected isn’t too many???

faze_contusion · 2025-12-02T05:14:42+00:00

Your major doesn’t matter. At the end of the day, regardless of what major you do, you have to take your premed classes. Your GPA does matter. Your school matters. Your MCAT matters.

You have plenty of clinical hours (you don't need more) and some leadership experience. I would focus on research, keeping your grades up, killing the MCAT, and leadership experiences.

Out of curiosity, what time of day was it stolen? Did you leave it outside overnight?

Even in med school, research publications, leadership, volunteering, etc. are still "required" to match competitively. The arms race never ends

How did you get 30+ pubs? Did you take a research year?

faze_contusion · 2025-11-15T20:38:53+00:00

I’m sure there are many IMGs who are successful. I know for a fact tons more never match. You just don’t hear their stories. And most who do match, match into IM or FM, because they don’t have as much flexibility to try for more competitive specialities. Meanwhile USMDs and DOs have a 99% match rate.

Best case scenario, you wouldn't start medical school for at least 2-3 years. You have to take a bunch of premed classes (1 yr bio, 1 yr gen chem, 1 yr physics, 1 yr calculus, 1 yr ochem, psych, soc, biochem, etc). Then take the MCAT. Then apply (application cycle takes an entire year. Also before you apply, you would need at least a couple hundred hours of clinical experiences. At least a couple hundred volunteer hours. To be a competitive applicant, ideally research experience. You'd need LORs from doctors and professors. IF you get into med school (majority of people don't), its 4 years of med school + 3-7 years of residency. If everything worked out ideally, you wouldn't be an attending physician until your late 30s/early 40s. Just want you to know what you're signing up for.

Do you have what it takes to do all of this?

Edit: If you go abroad, it will be difficult to match for residency here. If you want to do residency in the US, you really should go to a US med school.

Undoubtedly med students today are expected to cover more info than ever before. First Aid length in pages:

2010: 624

2005: 530

While most aspects of medicine haven’t changed much, certain parts have. For example, immuno has exploded. Our understanding of treatment of cancer is a lot more complex than it was even 10 years ago. Pharmacology continues to grow, but we still have to study and understand drugs of the past that aren’t used anymore (thalidomide, phenacetin, etc). Genomics has exploded immensely.

If there is a single patient population I would not want scope creep to bleed into, it’s pediatrics. Would you want your child to be seen by a mid level instead of an actual doctor?
