Elsewhere on this board, a few current Chicago students complained about pre-med there. The major beef was that the GPAs are typically lower at UC than at comparable schools and med schools focus as much, if not more, on GPA than on college attended. The students there also did not like the advising.

Duke and Penn would both be terrific for pre-med and each have top med schools, which take lots of students form their undergrad programs. Your choice between those two probably comes down to life style – big v. small city, urban v. suburban environment, diversity v. sports.
