<p>MCAT - Standardized test to get into med school</p>
<p>Board scores - Test one takes after Med school to determine internship/residency and specialization opportunities. Low scores means one is consigned to less prestigious/less lucrative internship/residencies and specialization areas (i.e. Primary care). </p>
<p>Not a medical doctor, either…but lived with 3 for some years and have several friends who are now MDs.</p>
