Ditto to Mini.

If you get bad grades, you’ll have a hellish time trying to get into med school. Jamimom might have a lot to say about this - but there is no point in being in the bottom half of a great school, because straight-up GPA is all that really matters.

Go for Penn - for some reason, I think it would be easier to ace orgo there than at MIT - and you aren’t getting into med school without an A in that course.
