How do med schools view premeds taken at colleges other than one's undergrad institution?

@texaspg why would it be “gaming the system” to take required courses for medical school admissions at a four year university that is not your home university?

Let’s just say, organic chemistry is difficult no matter where you take it. Ditto some of the other courses.

@parentologist I’m not sure I understand why your kid needs to double major in two areas that have no relation to her medical school future. Is she not sure she wants to apply to medical school? That’s OK…but why these other TWO majors with no relation to her medical school future?

Honestly, I’m not sure this will impact her medical school prospects…taking the courses at another four year university. But I’m not a medical school Adcom.

The only time NOT having a committee letter would be an issue is if the student was eligible to receive one, and didn’t.

Hoping @WayOutWestMom weighs in.

If she thinks these premed sciences are “slog”, she is going to have quite the time her first two years of medical school.
