College acceptances and compatibility (financial, academic, personal)

<p>You should be able to contact the school to find out how many pre-med switch to non pre-med majors. I am not sure how meaningful that data is. During a presentation at my daughter’s school (a top public research university), they indicate that 1200 student start as pre-med and about 120 make it to med school. When asked why, the professor bluntly said they couldn’t cut it. He further explained that many underestimate what it took and the level of commitment that was needed.</p>

<p>I would contact current students to ask about your concerns about support. If you search on the college website, you will probably find clubs for science students that list contact information for the officers. They might be willing to talk with your daughter. The admissions department might also help.</p>
