Drexel for Pre-Med

<p>Can someone please explain the rigor of coursework for a pre-med student at drexel? I plan on enrolling at Drexel for Fall 2012 as a transfer student going into sophomore year majoring in something in the business field while taking pre-med prerequisites. Is drexel the type of school that will weed out students so they can advertise a high acceptance rate to medical school? I heard sometimes the pre-med committee refuses to write LOR's for drexel students whom they believe have no chance, which seemed really awful! Can someone please describe their experience at Drexel.</p>

<p>Work hard and you’ll do well. If the committee doesn’t write you a letter it’s for good reason. You don’t want to apply before you’re ready, and you have a superrr low chance if you have a sub-3.0 GPA or any other glaring red flag on your application (wait a year or two, fix it, and then apply! It’s a lot of money to waste if you’re trying to apply to MD schools without at least a 3.4 or 3.5 minimum…do a post-bac!). I got a committee letter without any problems and have been accepted to several medical schools. I did well in all of my pre-med requirements, though I did study a lot in freshman/soph years.</p>
