<p>Med school is after you do regular 4-year college. Your HS stats aren’t a big factor into your admission in these schools a few years down the line. But first, you have to go to a regular undergraduate college, do the necessary courses required, and make sure you have a HIGH GPA from those schools. Med-Schools are really hard to get into, but they take into account your college career and MCAT scores. Look into this stuff online and get a better feel of what courses, GPA’s, and MCAT scores will be required.
A great number of people looking to go into medicine end up being REJECTED from every single med school they apply to. It will be tough, but if you really want to do it, it starts in college…you have to perform there.</p>

<p>He is talking about an accelerated program. There are only a select universities that have them. It is very selective, only room for 20-30 people. Unless you have a 4.0 gpa and took all ap classes and won a lot of awards, you wont get in. Your best bet would be to go to an accelerated program outside of the US . Try lublin.</p>
