    If you're not going the college route for medical school then you could see if you qualify for the Unifrmed Services University of Health Sciences.

    What are the academic requirements for admission into the USU School of Medicine?

    The USU School of Medicine accepts students with a variety of interests and talents.  Our student body represents a diverse educational background.  However, in order to be accepted in the SoM program, students must achieve the following:

    1. Attain a baccalaureate degree as of June 15 of the year of planned matriculation from an accredited academic institution in the United States, Canada or Puerto Rico.
    2. Completed at least on academic year of general or inorganic chemistry including laboratory; one academic year of general or inorganic chemistry including laboratory; one academic year of organic chemistry including laboratory; one semester of calculus (precalculus or computer science courses are not accepted); one academic year of general physics including laboratory (courses in anatomy are not acceptable); one academic year of biology including laboratory (botany courses are not acceptable); one academic year of college English (introductory courses in composition or literature are acceptable).

    An academic year of coursework consists of studies extending over a two-semester or three-quarter period and carries total credits of between eight and 12 quarter hours."
