    Chances of being able to transfer med schools for personal reasons?

    I am in the second semester of my second year and med school has been really rough on me and my husband. We have a 3-year-old who is a handful and we are not living near any family so it is just on us. (I already know going through med school with a kid is crazy, so this post isn't about that)...

    I have to start college at a community college.

    I can't start at a university. I have to do two years at a CC. I know med schools don't like CC credits. Can I take all med school prerequisites my junior and senior year of college when I'm at the university? I have no idea how college works.
