<p>I want to be a doctor without any hassles
What are 7 year med programs by the way. You go through 4 years of college and straight into med school or somethign? explain the process i must go through after high school if i aspire to become a doctor.What are all my options? </p>
<p>Isnt a 7 year med program the best way to becaome a doctor without any hassle or confusion.</p>
<p>. . .</p>
<p>There's a big forum called multiple degree programs which is all about these programs. Look there. I can't say how many countless people have already asked what "the best" programs are already, but they have a stickied thread over there concerning it.</p>
<p>You can't become a doctor with no hassle. Undergrad, Medical School, Post Grad, Residency, Fellowhip
10 years minimum more likely 15
It's going to be somewhat of a "hassle" - You can't breeze through and just become a doctor</p>
<p>Yeah, I have to agree. Going through a 7-year medical program definitely does not mean there are no hassles. Although you do lost the stress of MCATs and applying to medical schools, the work, learning and studying is no easy task.</p>
<p>direct med programs all have their pros and cons. Some are really really expensive (such as NW and Rice) but they are really pretigious. Some state schools are cheaper but lower ranked. What it comes down to is the fact that rank doesn't play as big a part in getting a good residency as you may think. It all depends on ur boards and EC's. If ur loaded and feel that the little extra help of prestige is worth it, then by all means go for it. But in general, 7 year med is really beneficial because it tosses the med admissions process out the door. concentrate on making it into ONE of these programs instead of being selective at the application stage. once u get admitted, weigh ur choices.</p>
<p>And good residencies don't matter as much for good jobs as you might think.</p>
<p>good point...im not too familiar with post-residency stuff</p>
<p>pardon me, but im rather new to all this terminology. what is "residency"</p>
