Does getting into a better college increase my chances of getting into Med school

if I went to Notre Dame versus Indiana University

No. There might be a small bump if you attend HYP or AWS, but that’s about it.

Schools normally publish their med school acceptance rates (i.e., what percent of their students that apply to med school get in). This should be a good first step when comparing schools for pre-med.

Oh gosh no. Such data is almost worthless since you have no idea what is in the numerator (US allopathic schools? osteopathic? Guadalajara?), and denominator (we only count students for whom we give a Committee Letter…in other words, we don’t support/count low chance applicants…)
