# Can we apply for medicine and law directly in undergrad?

No, both require undergraduate degrees first. US medical schools require a Bachelor's degree (any major) plus pre-med courses (biology, chemistry, physics, math) and MCAT exam; law schools require any Bachelor's degree plus LSAT exam. However, some universities offer combined BS/MD or BA/JD programs (7-8 years total) with early conditional admission to their graduate schools.
