University of Rochester has a lot of opportunities for undergraduate research. In fact, a year ago, the President told the parents that they had more research opportunities for undergraduates than they had undergraduates. The medical school and Strong Memorial Hospital are across the street from the main campus. It’s not a cut throat environment on the whole. My d is also the “peacekeeper” by nature (not science-oriented), but she has not found it necessary to keep the peace among her pre-med friends (except, of course, in areas that have nothing to do with the fact that they’re pre-med). Rochester is friendly to home-schoolers and relatively generous with merit aid.
