What is the PUC 3+2 program and is it a path to becoming a doctor?

The PUC 3+2 program combines 3 years of pre-med undergraduate education with 2 additional years leading to medical school eligibility. It's designed to accelerate the path to medical school for qualified students.

PUC's accelerated pre-med program is an option for students who want a structured pathway to medical school without the traditional 4-year undergraduate timeline. Understanding how it compares to other routes is important.
