Let's start by defining some terminology.

When you think of a traditional medical school applicant, the image probably comes to mind of a bright eyed pre med.

當你想到一個傳統的醫學院申請者時，腦海中浮現的可能是一個眼睛明亮的醫學預科生。

In their early twenties, they probably started college immediately after high school, pursued their undergraduate degree in biology or chemistry and did well in their classes.

二十出頭，他們可能在高中畢業後立即開始上大學，攻讀生物或化學的大學學位，並在班上表現良好。

他們參加了各種課外活動，包括研究、志願者工作和跟班醫生，在他們的貓上取得了一個體面的分數，並在大學三年或四年級結束時申請了醫學院。

這是進入醫學院的傳統途徑，你遇到的大多數醫學院申請人或多或少都是這樣的。

On the other hand, nontraditional students are all of the other pre meds that don't fit into this typical mold that being said, the specific definition of what constitutes a nontraditional student can vary depending on who you ask.

另一方面，非傳統學生是指所有其他不適合這種典型模式的預科生，儘管如此，什麼是非傳統學生的具體定義可以根據你問的人而有所不同。

Most people would probably agree that anyone who pursued a different career before deciding to switch to medicine would be nontraditional.

大多數人可能會同意，任何在決定轉向醫學之前從事不同職業的人都是非傳統的。

On the other hand, some medical schools consider pre med students who have taken any time off between undergrad and applying to medical school to be nontraditional regardless what is important to understand is that there are many different types of students, each with their own unique pathways to medicine that may be considered nontraditional.

另一方面，一些醫學院認為，從大學到申請醫學院之間有任何休息時間的醫學預科學生是非傳統的，但重要的是要明白，有許多不同類型的學生，每個人都有自己獨特的醫學途徑，可能被認為是非傳統的。
