<p>Every liberal arts college offers biology as a major. If you truly want to go to med school, focus on the following:
- Attend a college where you can get a high GPA, which is critical to admission to med school.<br>
- Focus on preparation for the MCAT. Also very important.
- Participate in some medical-related ECs during the school year or the summer.
- Minimize your undergraduate debt. Medical school is very expensive, and you will need to take out extensive loans to attend. An option that allows you to come out with NO undergraduate debt is best if you can find one.</p>
<p>Biology majors are a dime a dozen (I believe the last statistic I saw was that we graduate about 60,000 of 'em per year in the US right now). Jobs are scarce and low paying if you don’t go on to a higher level degree or med school. Competition for med school is very, very tough. Focus your search on satisfying the criteria I just listed – don’t go to a school with bruising competition for GPA among the pre-meds and where you will have to take out loans.</p>
