Hello,

I am currently applying to medical schools. To what extent am I competing with my pre-medical peers at my current undergraduate (ivy-league) college? I know that in the undergraduate admissions process I was rejected by a few schools simply because my high school was already sending a few (athletes) there.

Will medical schools refrain from taking 2-3 students from a particular undergraduate school? I am particularly interested in the behavior of top tier medical schools.

Best,

NN
