<p>The word “noob” can mean one of several different things ([Urban</a> Dictionary: noob](<a href=“Urban Dictionary: noob]Urban”>Urban Dictionary: Noob)), I guess it depends if you take it as definition #2 vs #3. That’s all I will say about that.</p>
<p>If you can’t take any criticism wait till you’re getting yelled at by a resident or an attending for something you may or may not have done. If you can’t take it, then medicine is DEFINITELY not for you (regardless if you do a combined program or not)</p>
<p>With respect to the “official” list as you call it, [which only has BS/MD programs, not BA/MD], [Curriculum</a> Directories](<a href=“http://services.aamc.org/currdir/section3/degree2.cfm]Curriculum”>http://services.aamc.org/currdir/section3/degree2.cfm), it is official in the sense that it is an AAMC web link, but then it ends there. There are MANY MANY more programs (both from high school and early assurance programs where you apply in sophomore/junior year of college) that are not listed on that specific website and even more than the 5 mentioned in this thread (sometimes the programs purposefully don’t wish to be listed on the AAMC website) OR the chapter in the Medical School Admission Requirements (MSAR™) book - “Chapter Ten: Information on Combined College/M.D. Programs for High School Students”: [Medical</a> School Admission Requirements - MSAR - AAMC](<a href=“http://www.aamc.org/students/applying/msar.htm]Medical”>Medical School Admission Requirements™ (MSAR®) for Applicants)</p>
