The changes of a university’s medical school have very little impact with the normal undergraduate’s pre-med preparation – taking Chem, Org Chem, Calc, MCAT prep, etc.

The presence of a nearby med school can allow for meaningful voluntarism or research – but have little impact with preparing students to apply successfully to medical schools, one day.

I’m sure that the contents of the Organic Chemistry taught at Philadelphia is 98% similar to what’s taught at Stanford or Johns Hopkins or Yale.
