[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]MD prior poster here- also want to add that it helps to have a few years of real life experience prior to starting med school. Having the maturity of going through real life experiences allows one to better handle the challenges of a rigorous curriculum/residency years. Also fine tunes decision making…all of this isn’t required - as I was an MD by the time I was 21- but I think again it doesn’t hurt and serves one well later in life. There’s pros and cons to everything and I’m grateful to have had an early start which has helped me in other ways but the traditional accelerated model is how it’s done in other countries which may be the OP’s reference point.
