I'm not a pre med student yet, but I can tell you this. The majority of colleges/universities do NOT consider pre med to be a major, rather it is a set of courses that one must fufill to apply to med school. Therefore, you really can't be looking at schools based on which has the best pre med program. There are many schools with strong science programs, and you don't have to major in a science to apply to med school, so you should think about what school would be a good fit for you, and your interests outside of medicine, in deciding a school to go to for undergrad.
In terms of deciding if a school's science programs are good, look for things like if they have good facilities, advanced equipment, opportunities for research for undergrads where you can actually publish work, etc., whether you want small science classes, etc. Also, it could be useful to check out what sort of pre med guidance there is available for you: as in guidance in applying to med school, what classes you should take, etc.
Good luck!
