It seems like you have a few different queries bundled together. Generally speaking, the best medical school for you is the one you can gain admission to. However, if you're drawn to a specific medical specialty, it might be beneficial to seek out a school that specializes or conducts research in that area. Despite this, all medical schools teach the same foundational knowledge, and their students typically all pass the same national exams. The first two years are heavy on science and memorization, while the later two years focus on applying this knowledge to understand patient complaints. The most intensive clinical training occurs during residency, and your choice will largely depend on your interests and acceptance.
When it comes to degrees, physicians graduate with a doctorate, and there are no master's degrees involved in this process. Master's degrees are more common in other healthcare roles, which can range from bachelor's to master's to doctorate degrees depending on the program.
As for roles like medical assistants and nursing assistants, they typically require some form of formal training. Some may earn an associate degree, but most of these paths lead to a certificate or certification.

It typically takes about 1-2 years to complete a master's degree, depending on the program and whether you are studying full-time or part-time. As for good medical schools, some well-regarded ones include Harvard Medical School, Johns Hopkins School of Medicine, Stanford University School of Medicine, and the University of California--San Francisco School of Medicine. However, the best medical school for you will depend on your specific interests, career goals, and personal circumstances. Additionally, you can take the dual degree route like the MD-MPH program which is a combination of MD and Masters in Public Health although it requires longer time, study and usually more competitive than the MD program alone. Also you will need a good MCAT score, volunteer experience and shadowing to get into the MD program for both pathways . Hope this helps and Goodluck with your career pursuit .
