So maybe your spouse is researching, preparing, applying, or anxiously awaiting to get into medical school you are wondering what it is going to be like. I'm hoping you stumble across this post in your research. My particular experience was when my husband went to get his Master of Physician Assistant degree.
I'll preface by saying that the PA program my husband attended was a three year program which is different than many others as others are two year programs and it was much shorter than a MD. Also, my husband had to go back and level undergrad classes as his first Bachelors had nothing to do with the science or medical field. So our adventure to complete the Master of Physician Assistant degree was a seven year process. Leveling undergrad was not the challenge that was so easy I've never really considered it part of the adventure until I looked back and saw the journey full circle.
