I'm 28 and considering entering a 2 year postbac pre med program, upon completion of which I will apply to medical school.  Do medical schools discriminate against post bac programs, or older students in general?

Also, coming from a liberal arts background, how difficult will the introductory science courses be for me?

Medical schools very much like older applicants. The introductory science MATERIAL will be reasonable, but depending on which post bach program you go to you might find yourself under pressure from the undergraduate competition and curve.

What about students that have finished a biology BSc, and then went for the MSc in biology as well, and after that thought of applying to medical school? Would the fact that having a Masters degree (being a little more specialized than BSc holders) and being older be enough?
