<li> That most are no-name programs (which is as true for these programs as it is for med schools)</li>
<li> That it may be easier (it may be, but certainly not GPA or MCAT wise for top programs)</li>
<li> That they're looking for different things (this I may be inclined to agree with you on. However, it seems to me that for most of these programs, you have to have everything a pre-med has AND research.)</li>
