Pre-Med & Medical School Pre-Med Topics

<p>I’m a HS Senior looking at schools with good opportunities for pre-med? (research, shadowing, volunteering, advising)
My SAT score is a 2290 (Math 800, Reading 720, Writing 770) and ACT 34. I’m a student in TX.
These are the schools on my list, of these I can only apply to a few, but I need advice on which ones to apply to…<br>

  • Dartmouth
  • Cornell
  • University of North Carolina Chapel Hill
  • Emory University
  • UT Austin
  • Stanford
  • Wash U St. Louis
  • Duke University</p>

<p>All of those except for UT Austin and Emory are reaches. Not just for you, but for anyone. All are great schools though. There are no ‘pre-med’ schools. You can go anywhere. </p>

<p>@momworried‌ Thank you! Are there any good safeties that you would suggest?</p>

<p>Definitely your state schools. You’ll probably get a scholarship with your stats. Depending how far from home you want to travel, look at Northeastern in Boston. Tufts. Not a safety but s great science/pre-med school. Tulane. University of Miami. I’m not too familiar with the southern states schools. I’m sure there are a lot of other great schools</p>

<p>@summerlover1 Did you take the PSAT? Are you a NMF?</p>

<p>As for where to go, you go to the school that makes you the be$t offer. With your stats (I’m assuming you have a GPA to match your test scores), and if you do your research and apply wisely, you should not have to pay much(or anything) to go to college. </p>

<p>BTW, aren’t you a little late?</p>

<p>You should also consider IS BS/MD programs with your stats.</p>

<p>@momworried Thank you! I have applied to state schools already. @plumazul‌ I took the PSAT and was National Merit Commended because I missed it by a few points. I have already applied to some places, I’m just looking to add 2 more schools with Jan deadlines to my list that’s all. @artloversplus‌ Yes I have actually applied to both In State & Out of State BS/MD Programs. </p>

<p>What are your parents saying about what they can afford to pay?</p>

<p>It only depends on your personal preferences and financial situation. You are much better off asking yourself than us here.
If money are available for both UG + Med. School, then your personal comfort zone and stats will determine where you will attend.</p>
