<p>Wellesley...but your not a girl :(</p>
<p>Antioch college in ohio has 100% med school acceptance? interesting, so basically the school doesnt have to be competative?</p>
<p>Pomona College would be good, because it has good chemistry and biology departments, and what is more, students can take the science courses at Harvey Mudd, which is one of the best science schools. If you don't like Pomona, you could also look at Claremont McKenna and Pitzer, for the same reason that you can take your science courses such as O-Chem at Harvey Mudd.</p>
<p>One college to consider is Bowdoin. It has 91% acceptance rate to medical schools (schools include: Harvard, Columbia, Yale, Tufts, Dartmouth, Brown, BU, Mayo, Case Western, Cornell etc). Bowdoin also has top notch neuroscience, biology, and chemistry departments. When I was applying last yr, I took a look at Williams and Amherst, and was turned away by fact that they had limited biology courses in comparison to Bowdoin. Bowdoin offers courses ranging from Microbiology to Neuronal Regeneration to Molecular Evolution. And in upper level courses on average there only 3 to 5 people. One upper classmen friend of mine was explaining to me how for her Molecular Neurobiology class was manipulating cricket dendrites using various neurotransmitters (can you imagine that ACTUALLY conducting research as apart of class!) Basically the decision is up to you to decide where you want to go begin your pre-med career, good grades and a high MCAT score will determine your medical acceptance not the school.</p>
<p>wow sounds interesting, ill definitely look into that.</p>

<p>If I do remember correctly, this college is incredibly difficult, in a very unique way.</p>
<p>I think it's heavy on co-op or service-learning. "A place to start revolutions" or something according to Fiske Guide. (Bad memory, sorry)</p>
<p>for pre-med i heard that wooster, reed, ohio wesleyan, bowdoin and antioch among the LACs have pretty good placements.</p>

What's the source on this? Fascinating... if true.

What is your source for placement numbers?

</p>
<p>His numbers compiled (I believe) from taking the number of grad school placements in top schools compared to the number of people in the school and finding a percentage (I've seen that ranking before I believe in the grad school forum.) Wall street Journal did the same and made a list that's is similar, but a bit different, most likely because it included Business and Law grad schools, rather than just Med School.</p>
<p>Top 10 Overall:</p>
<ol>
<li>Harvard University</li>
<li>Yale University</li>
<li>Princeton University</li>
<li>Stanford University</li>
<li>Williams College</li>
<li>Duke University</li>
<li>Dartmouth College</li>
<li>MIT</li>
<li>Amherst College
10.Swarthmore College</li>
</ol>
<p>In terms of what I have experienced that list is spot on accurate, even at top grad schools not in the WSJ sample.</p>
<p>You need to be very wary of any "study" that looks at one year of data for small liberal arts colleges and/or a very small selection of, for example, four medical schools.</p>
<p>The numbers vary wildly from year to year because the sample sizes are so small.</p>
