The first two years usually involve preclinical training in which potential future doctors learn about basic medical concepts, according to the Association of American Medical Colleges (AAMC). It isn’t typically until they move on to the clinical portion of training in the last two years of their medical education that they begin clinical rotations, where they receive hands-on experience in medical care.
