What is a Direct (BS/MD) Medical Program?

<p>A Direct BS/MD or BA/MD Program is a direct-entry program that guarantees a high school student admission into medical school contingent upon certain criteria, specific to each program. Some combined direct-entry BS/MD degree or BA/MD degree programs require that students achieve a certain score on the MCAT (after their second/third year into the program), while others completely waive the MCAT although requiring a certain GPA to be met. Other programs require the MCAT to be taken but do not require any specific score (in other words, they want you to just take the exam but your score does not impact your admission into the affiliated medical school).</p>
