I'm not aware of any way to complete medical school 100% online. Most programs have mandatory hands-on training and clinicals, etc. I don't think it would matter if you got some of your core classes out of the way online, though as long as you end up passing your tests and earning your MD.
Agreed. The degree matters most of all.
The coursework can definitely be done online and as long as you school is accredited, you should be fine. There will be some things of course that have to be completed in person, but the program should explain what those things are and give you a schedule far in advance so you can prepare.
Going to a college in person is great for networking and getting hands-on experience. But you can do 75% of the work online, depending on what you want to go into.
It's 2023. Most degrees are online anyway, even if you do go in person. lol
I mean, it happens. The biggest thing is figuring out the specific school's reputation and where you will need to go for your in-person things when you get that far. They have to be accredited, that is key.
The only situation where I would MAYBE be concerned about having a fully online degree would be if I didn't have any prior work experience. I think you'll be okay as long as you make sure you're getting it from a reputable organization.
Is there an entity that gives accreditation to medical school programs? I hope I’m phrasing that correctly. For example, CACREP (Council for Accreditation of Counseling and Related Educational Programs) gives accreditation to universities for masters and doctoral degree programs in counseling. So when I was applying to clinical counseling programs, I only did CACREP accredited schools.
If you decide to pursue med school, whether online or in-person, it's best to carefully consider the program's quality and your ability to balance your full-time job with the demanding nature of med school.
I didn't know there were fully online medical school programs. I searched on Google but it says all programs require some in-person portion. The sites that claim to offer full training seemed a little sketch imo
Does anyone know where I can go to school to get Certified as A Medical Biller and Coder? Looking for an actual school that teaches, hands on preferably, not online in California Bakersfield, Tulare, Porterville,or Fresno? Any suggestions.
