<p>There is information about premed success at CC on the career center site; unfortunately it is several years old. In 2003, approx. 65% of those who applied to medical school upon graduation (or graduation +1 year) from CC were accepted. </p>
<p>As for the strength of the Bio dept–good question. My D will be bio major wherever she decides to matriculate (It’s down to CC and one other school.) and she’s wondering about that too.</p>
<p>D has looked over the emphasis of CC’s dept and it seems to be more heavily biased towards ecological/envoromental research–which isn’t her thing. She’s more interested in neurobiology, especially cognition and brain physiology. (She’ll be doing some reseach at the local U this summer involving MRIs, brain anomalies and criminal behavior.)</p>
<p>So if anyone has more up to date data about medical school success, or has some information about neurobio research opportunities that D missed, she’d love to know about it. Might make her final choice easier since she really loves the chill students, the location and the Block plan.</p>
