<p>There isn't any centralized pre-med advisors? The closest ones I found were just counselors in Career Center but even there, there are no official pre-med advisors.</p>

2

<p>yeah. it absolutely sux the premed advising at the career center :/</p>

3

<p>no we don’t, but UCLA does. lol :(</p>

4

<p>We seriously need to erect a “THIS UNIVERSITY DOES NOT PRODUCE DOCTORS” sign outside Sather Gate.</p>

<p>Have you read the information [url=&lt;a href=“https://career.berkeley.edu/Medical/Medical.stm]here[/url”&gt;https://career.berkeley.edu/Medical/Medical.stm]here[/url</a>]?</p>

<p>Yeah, it’s funny because Berkeley has one of the highest numbers of med school applicants in the country.</p>

<p>We supply the most Asian applicants. =)</p>

<p>Quick question: where do Berkeley psychology BA students do their research at? In UCSF Med centers, in medical centers/hospitals? thanks!</p>

<p>the reason why I am asking the question above is because we have a family friend who works at Berkeley as an accountant and he told me that pre-meds do similar volunteer works, internships, and research as students going for a BA in Psych in Berkeley.</p>

<p>Berkeley needs less premeds. Apparently 85% of IB majors are on some type of pre-health track.</p>

9

<p>IB has too many pussies who ***** out of MCB to get good GPAs</p>

10

<p>Anyone know any good counselors at Career Center for pre-med advising??</p>

11

<p>There are no good counselors at the Career Center for pre-med advising. I went once, they give terrible advice.</p>

12

<p>Do you think IB is really much different than MCB? in terms of attaining a good gpa?</p>

13

<p>oh it’s clueless. not answering the question then.</p>

14

<p>Is UCLA,UCSD, and UC Davis better schools to do pre-med than Berkeley? (As those first three schools have medical schools/centers?)</p>

15

<p>the easiest school = best school to do pre-med in. might as well go to cal-state.</p>

16

<p>@mechrocket, I meant to say among the UC’s.</p>

17

<p>Berkeley has too many damn pre-meds. Oh well, most of them will give up by the end of their second semester of freshmen year anyways lol.</p>

<p>

</a></p>

<p>**** we have more premeds than UCLA now…</p>

<p>

Yes, MCB grades extremely difficultly. The average grade MCB gives out is a 2.96, IB 3.3.</p>

<p>True, but do you want to actually learn science? Or just do hours of rote memorization?</p>

20

<p>do you guys think doing pre-med in a csu is better than a UC?</p>
