Chance/help modify a list for a biochem (premed) major from MA [3.94 GPA, 1570 SAT]

Forget pre med. What do you want in a school - size (large, medium, small), environment (urban, suburban, rural), sports, greek life, weather, etc.

Figure out what you want and built a list from there. Doctors come from all colleges - not just elite colleges.

I was a patient at Vandy in Radiology - and here’s where the residents went to school (first two year residents). The point is, if you don’t get into med school and statistically, the odds are against but it won’t be because of where you went.

You want to enjoy your four years. You’re going to get into top schools - but make sure it’s the top for you and not for US News. And if you make visits and like easier admits better - you’ll join a million kids, including mine who chose safe over reach. You are there four years - day after day - don’t forget that.

Good luck.
