Pathway to D.O. medical school? Please any guidance
#3
Another option to consider is a postbac premed program. These are usually one year certificate programs; though, I have seen a few schools that offer a master's degree. Georgetown, John Hopkins, and Boston University are just a few of the schools offering this type of premed training. Successful completion of one of these programs would serve a dual purpose. One, you have the prerequisites you need. Two, you prove that you're ready for the rigors of medical school.
If you don't mind being in the military here is another option. One of my friends, who is now a neurologist, attended this medical school after completing a postbac program.

USU School of Medicine
