<p>I’d look closely at Pomona. Excellent in the sciences. Find out how many of their pre-meds go onto medical school and if they winnow the herd. I think the football demands at Pomona might be a bit lighter than they are at the ivies. Similarly at Haverford: I worked there for a couple years and didn’t know they had a football team, so that might be another reason to look at Haverford and other LACs. The demands football places on your academics might not be as great as they are at the ivies.</p>
