Premed school that's not "cut throat"

Sort of agree. It should be a “good” school - not a “mediocre” school. You do need to be properly educated! I would not recommend going to some directional/regional school for undergrad unless you were certain that the bio/chem/physics/math courses were sound.

MCAT score is super important.

However, I do agree that you don’t need to go into big debt for undergrad for pre-med. You’ll have enough debt for med school Yikes! LOL

So, take whatever merit or discounts you can from “good schools” for your stats.

If you could get awesome loan-free aid (or minimal loans) from a top, top school, then that’s super!

Where are you applying that will give you good merit?.
