Could anyone tell me of the top ones based on how many students:

are accepted to med school: not important;

quality of science classes: varies from school to school, even within same course (eg Bio 101) at same college with different profs:

MCAT prep: “pre med” profs don’t teach to the MCAT, they just teach bio, chem, physics, etc.

Getting into med school is all about your performance at any college on your list, not the school you graduate from.

The best premed is one where you will fit in (academically, socially, etc) as if you’re happy with overall environment you’re more likely to do well in classes which tends to translate into better grades (GPAs). The worst premed is one where you will not fit in (academically, socially, etc), become miserable, do poorly in your classes, watch your GPA plummet as well as your med school dreams disappear.

The best premed is one where you will graduate with little or no debt as most med school is paid for via loans, not scholarships. The worst premed is one where you will graduate with enormous debt as most med school is paid for via loans, not scholarships.

Using above as starting point and since you know yourself and circumstances better than us, how would you rank the above schools and why?
