    #69 – Three Years to MD: Does It Measure Up?

    In this episode, we’re diving into the age-old question: is a three-year medical school program just as good as the traditional four-year track? The researchers compared the residency performance of graduates from both programs and found no significant differences, suggesting that you might not need that extra year after all—unless you’re really keen on more electives!
