Can I attend Tuck after completing year two of medical school instead of after completing year three?

Yes. The schedule is flexible to allow starting at Tuck either after year two or three. However, we encourage students to begin the MBA after year 3 so that they have the experience of clinical medicine to take with them to Tuck.
