Look UM has what is called a pre- health track. It is like pre- med but they put you with special counsellors that help you track your progress and explain what is needed to get into any of the different medical profession: medicine, dentistry, podiatry, nursing, etc. They set you up with professionals in your area to shadow. My friend’s daughter was set up as soon as freshman year with a doctor to shadow. Regarding Rigor: the pre- health has some difficult classes like Orgo Chem. Orgo it is a difficult but not impossible class, and it depends on the background of each student. Most Orgo classes in good universities are challenging and UM is a more difficult college than many people think.
