I have read threads about UChicago being unsupportive of premeds heading for med school GPA-wise. The thing is, I was planning to try to apply there but after reading all that I’m very hesitant. Only TOP medical schools (Harvard, Yale, Pritzker) offer financial aid to international students. Do you think I have a chance? Or do I pick another university that is known to help premeds? My GPA is 4.0 and my SAT score is 2050 (1330 on the 1600 scale).

Or should just abandon the idea of med school in the states and settle for med school in Saudi Arabia? It’s only 6 years here but the country is suffocating (I’m sure you’ve heard).
