Fordham Pre-Med vs.....

Colleges and Universities A-Z Fordham University

<p>I'm planning on going to medical school after college. I have five undergraduate schools to choose from. Which one(s) do you think would give me the best pre-med education and advising? Which one(s) would be the least challenging to maintain a high GPA? Which one(s) would be most desirable to a medical school if I got comprable grades at each one?</p>

<p>University of Vermont (Accepted as a Microbiology major)
Fordham University (NY) (Accepted as Pre-Med/Bio Sciences)
University of Connecticut
Dalhousie University (Halifax, Canada) (Accepted as B.S.)
Northeastern University (MA)
University of Rhode Island (Accepted Microbiology)</p>

<p>One concern is that Fordham (especially) and Northeastern have limited biological research opportunities. I'm considering an MD-Phd program.</p>

<p>I'd really like to go to a prestigious medical school medical school like:</p>

<p>McGill
Columbia
Tufts
Northwestern
Brown</p>

<p>Can anyone offer any advice?</p>

<p>I don’t know much about Fordham’s biological research opportunities, but I know that for a lot of graduate schools, where you go for undergrad doesn’t really matter. However, you should choose whichever school you think will best prepare you for your future in the medical field</p>

<p>Can anyone speak to the benefits of Fordham’s Biology department or pre-med services?</p>
