Do I need to go to university before going to college of medicine??

I really wish to study medicine
But a friend of mine said I need to first go to university

Thank you comment icon Hi. I really appreciate your interest in attending med. school and I really wish you get through it and achieve your dream. The primary thing to do to get into a medical school is to do a 4 year pre-med undergrad degree in any relevant subjects like Biology. Shruti Chaitanya

James Constantine’s Answer

Hello Maybelle, I have revised my answer in light of some revelations. The structure of medical studies courses varies throughout the world. It also varies throughout the United States Of America. The changes I recommend involve the pre-med Bachelor medical studies. These should not be undertaken concurrently with the final advanced medicine studies.The reason for this in not in the work overload, but in these studies being needed as pre-requisites. I also urge prospective medical students to adhere to a high school curriculum involving biology, chemistry, and mathematics.The directive is to maximize the skillsets and knowledge of medical practitioners

Karissa’s Answer

Yes, you need a bachelors degree to get into medical school. You get a bachelors degree at a university and it will take four years.

Hello,

You have to complete your undergraduate education before applying to medical school. You'll also need to take the standardized test to get into medical school, but also volunteering hours and other stuff before you apply.

Hopefully this helps!

Best regards,

Johan

Undergraduate Education: Obtain a bachelor's degree with a focus on pre-medical courses (biology, chemistry, physics, and mathematics).
Medical College Admission Test (MCAT): Take and pass the MCAT, which is a standardized examination for prospective medical students.
Medical School: Apply to and attend medical school, which typically takes four years to complete.
Residency: After medical school, complete a residency program in your chosen specialty, which can last between 3 to 7 years.
