Accelerated Pgms: listings & rankings.

<p>can all of you please list as many 6 or 7 year medical schools
they are really hard to find on the internet and i know this forum has about 100 of them listed already but a list of them in 1 thread would be really helpful to a lot of people who want to apply to these programs
here are some of the ones i know:
Penn State (6 yr)
U of Miami (FL) (7 yr, dunno about 6)
UKMC (?)
......
please continue this list
thanks to all</p>

<p>St. Louis University and NEOUCOM (Northeast Ohio University College of Medicine)</p>

<p>University of Southern California
University of California-San Diego (only by invite, CA residents)
Drexel University
Albany Medical College
Temple University
Vanderbilt University (ENGAGE Program)
and, also UMDNJ</p>

<p>There's probably a few others I'm missing.</p>

<p>Another program is St. Louis University (not guaranteed admissions to med, but 98% acceptance rate for those who met the fairly decent requirements)</p>

<p>bharath, you beat me to the post!</p>

<p>How good, in your opinion, is SLU and its medical school? Thanks.</p>

<p>Here's a few off the top of my head:</p>

<p>Brown PLME
Northwestern HPME
Case Western
Miami
UMKC
Michigan (I've heard they're cutting this one...don't know if its going to continue)
Miami
Sophie Davis
Howard University? </p>

<p>...that's all that my exhausted brain can think of for now lol :D</p>

<p>Can we also rate these in terms of their overall reputation or how hard they are to get into. Does anyone know if it is easier to get into RPI/AMC or Miami??</p>

<p>yea double what coincollector said
and could you put 6 or 7 next to em if they are 6 or 7 year programs
i know if you get into any of these they are great medical schools but do prestigious universities like brown university have an upper-edge on academics than the other universities
i really appreciate the posting
anyone have any others?</p>

<p>Here's the # of years labels for the schools i listed in my last post:</p>

<p>Brown PLME --> 8 year
Northwestern HPME --> 7 year
Case Western --> 7 or 8 year option
UMKC --> 6 years
Michigan (I've heard they're cutting this one...don't know if its going to continue) --> 8 years
Miami --> ???
Sophie Davis --> 7 year
Howard University --> 8 year</p>

<p>... hope that helps :D</p>

<p>heard brooklyn college in ny has ba/md prog i think 8 yr
suny stony brook has 8 year
u rochester has 8 year prog
northwestern has 7 year
rice/baylor is 8 year
umkc - 6 yr
case western - i think 8 years
brown plme is 8 years
miami has one but i think might be for instate not sure
sophie davis - cuny - has seven year</p>

<p>btw i heard rice/baylor, brown, and northwestern were the hardest to get into outta all these
although they are all probably as hard to get into as any ivy leage school</p>

<p>anyone know anythign specifically on albany medical college and how good it is? because Usnews doesnt rank it. thanks.</p>

<p>btw i think what really matters is not the undergrad of the prog but their medical school beacuse when u go for residency moist important thing is where u got ur md from
rice's baylor is ranked 13th or so in us news- reallllllly nice
and northwestern is 20 -al so reaallllly nice
probably why they are so hard to get into
but i dont know much about the rpi/amc program....please somoen comment on that</p>

<p>I do not know enough about St. Louis University to comment on the quality of the school. I think many high school seniors are worried about attending a medical school not ranked according to USNews, and I can understand that. However, medical school quality CANNOT be ascertained from any aspect of USNews. Higher ranked schools are so ranked because of NIH funding. If medical students have limited to no research opportunities what use is this. As a high school senior the best thing to do would be to first research the structure of the clinical years (years 3 and 4) how many weeks is each rotation is primary care emphasized or specialties, how is one evaluated and by whom, what safeguards the school has against scutwork, etc. This link is especially helpful<br>

The next thing after this is to look into whether the pre-clinical years (years 1 and 2) are Pass/Fail, Honors/Pass/Fail or Letter Grades (who wants to compete for grades). Problem Based Learning or traditional lectures, opportunities for research etc. I think the last thing one should look at are match lists for seniors, the types of fields and the places matched. Once a person has looked into all these things, can they get a feel for the quality of a medical school.</p>

<p>does anyone have any info about University of Michigan Ann Arbor and University of Southern Cal's med programs
someone earlier mentioned these programs and said Michigan was in the process of droping their's
i wen to USC's website but i couldnt find the program
if ne one can post a link, it would be great
does anyone know of any others?
i know there are only a handful of these programs in the US and very few people know about em so i just want to accumulate a bunch of schools in this thread because its very helpful info for aspiring doctors like ourselves :)</p>

<p>AMC is supposed to be a really good med school...there are 3 programs, RPI, Siena, and Union college...did anybody mention Washington University (St. Louis)?</p>

<p>Does Washington Uninversity in St. Louis have a 6-8 yr med program?????
it has one of the top 3 medical schools in the country!!!
i would love to go there</p>

<p>The BA/MD program at Washington University in St. Louis is total ********, literally.
8 year program. You must maintain a 3.8 GPA throughout your 4 years of undergraduate. You must score a 36 on the MCAT to matriculate into the Medical School (36 is extremely high). And they only take 8 students in the entire nation. With such stats you could get into any med school in the country anyways.</p>

<p>:| <em>gulp</em>
ur kidding right
that is why i want to go to a medical program were u dont have to worry about the MCATs</p>

<p>The University of Michigan bs/md program (Interflex) was stopped a few years ago. It was a 6 year program. It is no longer running.</p>

<p>are you sure...i didnt apply, but i went to a college fair in october, and i talked to a rep, and he said it was still there...and hannah, whiteknight is right...the school requires ridiculously high stats and is one of the most selective in the country</p>

<p>lol sat908
yeah i checked their site
pretty tough program
and its hannaN not H, lol no prob people mess my name up all the time
i just found a new addition to the list that im pretty sure wasn't mentioned before :)</p>

<p>George Washington University (7 yr)</p>

<p>sorry about that, didnt realize</p>
