is UW madison bad to try to get into med school?

<p>i have heard so many stories about how uw is a good thing for med school, but what about competitiveness at uw/the big classes/everyone is from wisconsin so you will not have connections elsewhere in the us... is there a much much greater advantage to go to, say, northwestern rather than uw madison? i mean, it's a good school... but is it enough? especially for grad school, etc?!? :/ PLEASE HELP, i'm freaking out. especially because madison may be my only option :(</p>
