<p>Here's the deal man. The Med programs are sticklers on stats, so Brown, Northwestern, etc are pretty much bigtime reaches. There are lesser programs out there (like NEOUCOM...an ohio 6-yr school) that you will get into, but remember that they are innately less prestigious. If just becoming a doctor is what you want to do, then this is fine because in the middle of Illinois your patients are unlikely to care whether you went to WUSTL or Wright State for med school. No Joke.</p>

<p>On the other hand if your aim is to go to a top school for grad and undergrad and be some high level doctor, then there is no doubt you should go to a better school. My advice after seeing my friends is simple, avoid the pre-med factories. JHU and Cornell are great, but are super competitive pre-med (more so than HYPS) and you might wash out and will likely end up at a lesser med school. On the other hand, there are plenty of top schools you might do better at away from the pressure cooker environment. </p>

<p>My recommendations are Brown, Penn, Dartmouth, Vassar, UNC-CH, Northwestern, Middlebury.</p>
