My road-map to MD

Hello everyone.This is my plan. Let me know what you think.I’m 30 and have a Bachelors of Science degree, no children. Taking all pre-requisites at local comm college. Already took some pre-reqs with my Bach of Science degree.


Spring 2013


chem 1 w.lab


Physics 1 w. lab





Summer 2013


chem 2 w/ lab


Physics 2 w. lab


Fall 2013


Organic chem 1 w/lab


Spring 2014


Organic Chem 2 w. lab


Study for MCAT


Summer 2014


Take MCAT and apply for Med school


Bio Chemistry I w/ lab


Fall 2014 Fingers crossed i’m accepted at the local MD school.


2015- Matriculate and 2019 graduate


My concerns: Letter of recommendation.I work with MD’s that can write it now but if i switch my job I might loose that opportunity to get those letters. How reliable are those websites that store LORs?

That generally looks fine.


I would consider moving the Physics 2 to Fall just because two hard sciences in one summer is a bit intense.


I’d also probably take Biochem in the fall instead of the summer you are applying since you’ll be largely consumed with application essays and what not and biochem would distract from that.
