Answer:

Eh not exactly. Its more like you can apply to Bachelors/Doctor of Medicine programs. If you then get accepted. You have to complete that which then pushes you into medical school without having to apply to medical school. Just be aware you may need to take the MCAT exam.

Answer:

Yes, it is possible if you are not living in the US or Canada.

Step-by-step explanation:

In the US and Canada, students are required to complete 4 years of undergraduate studies where they will get their bachelor's degree and then move on to a 4-year medical school program.

If you are living outside the US and Canada, you can do medical school right after high school ends (after 12th grade). But the medical school can range between 4-8 years of education.
