Help with narrowing college choices!!!

Pre-Med & Medical School High School Student Topics
1

<p>I'm a rising senior in a public school in Ohio. I've been looking a lot at schools but I can't really narrow it down. I wanted to see which of my schools have a better science department and which ones don't. I wanted schools that would have a lot of interaction with professors and a school without a cutthroat pre-med atmosphere.</p>

<p>I can't apply to too many schools due to financial reasons. Also because of this, I am looking for a college that would provide subsantial financial aid. </p>

<p>So far, this is my list of colleges...</p>

<p>Carleton
Case Western
Cornell
Grinnell
Haverford
Kenyon
Oberlin
Tufts
University of Pennsylvania
Washington University in St. Louis
Williams</p>

<p>I believe WUSTL has the cutthroat atmosphere you're trying to avoid. One of my classmates who graduated from there described it as "the toughest pre-med in the country." Your mileage may vary, of course.</p>

<p>Ya, my uncle went to WUSTL and it was EXTREMELY difficult. Most of those schools are fairly "cutthroat" though. Maybe tufts or williams would not be quite as bad.</p>
