So I’m actually a junior in HS right now, and yes Med school is a light year away but I like to think ahead. I plan on busting my butt in college, and yes I know it’s sort of impossible to attain a 3.8+ while having a social life, but if I have to give up everything for it, I’m prepared. So I’m thinking of 4 schools right now, but I don’t know which one’s the best for me. I plan on doing Internal Medicine and then a fellowship in Cardiology but I don’t which specific school would give me the boost to get the best Internal Medicine residency and furthermore the best cardiology fellowship. These are the schools I’m thinking of:


Mount Sinai School of Medicine (It’s always intriguied me, I know absolutely nothing about it but somehow it seems amazing to me)
Harvard Medical School
Duke Medical School
UVA Medical School (This one would probably the most accessible to me, as I live in VA)
John’s Hopkins Medical School (I mean, come on, what asprising physician DOESN’T want to attend this medical school? I’ve been many times, and it’s just awe-inspiring!)


So which ones should I gear towards?


I did double post this in two different forums because this forum doesn’t seem to get that much activity, forgive me!
