Grades or EC?

<p>Unless you plan to graduate early do a **** load of research and get some publications or something else to supplement your application, I can't see the advantage. Also, one year means nothing in the grand scheme of things. Why rush through the best 4 years of your life?</p>

<p>If you must become a doctor ASAP, do PSU's or Howard's 6 year program. You finish 2 years early with a BA and MD. I would hate to do one of these programs, but for some these are fits.</p>
