<p>I don’t think anyone is advocating attending a “non selective school.” I think the suggestion was that going to a decently ranked school that is strong in bio, chem, physics, and math can prepare you for med school.</p>
<p>Going to some directional public that is virtually unknown outside of its county and has “so-so” science courses is not recommended.</p>
<p>I’ve also have heard (but don’t know for sure) that grades in Organic Chem classes in particular are very important.</p>
