<p>What non-ivy schools in the north east have good pre-med programs? Please post especially if you are a pre-med major at a northeast college.</p>
<p>I would have to say: Tufts, Haverford, Bowdoin, Carleton, Hopkins</p>
<p>Mid-teer places are: Boston College, Brandeis, Lehigh, NYU</p>
<p>Lower teer but respectable programs are: Boston University, Trinity College, Conneticut College and other mid teer liberal arts colleges</p>
<p>what exactly is a good pre-med program? one where more students get accepted into a med school, or one where the students r more prepared for med school?</p>
<p>Colby College has a fairly good Pre-Med program here-- not to mention the science facilities and staff are amazing (we're the only colelge in Maine with an electrospray mass spectrometer or electron microscope).</p>
<p>80% colby grads who apply are accepted to med school, and, apparently, andyone with a decent MCAT and over 3.5 GPA will be guaranteed admission from Colby...though, where is that not true?</p>
<p>and what exactly is a decent mcat score? my friend is going to duke med school. and her mcat score was below 30. but her extracurriculars were spectacular. i haven't heard of colby. where is it?</p>
<p>Is she a urm?</p>
<p>what's a urm?</p>
<p>urm = under represented minority?</p>
<p>and I believe that Colby is in Maine.</p>
<p>any school is good for premed if you do well in the premed classes get a good MCAT score, and have a resume that will make mother theresa (may God bless her) shake at the knees...its as simple as that.</p>
<p>haha, Doogie.</p>
<p>Yep, VPat, Colby's in Waterville, ME. It's sister colleges are Bates and Bowdoin (maybe you've heard of one of those schools?). Anyhue, it's a great (Top 20) Liberal Arts school-- I love it anyways-- with top notch professors, a great atmosphere, and ample research/EC opportunities.</p>
