<p>Does going to an Ivy league school or top tier school (Cornell, Columbia, Penn, Georgetown) increase your chances of getting admission into a medical school? Or is it better to go to a school with a lower ranking and get better grades?</p>
<p>Please don't say "go to an Ivy and get good grades". ;)</p>
<p>Go to an Ivy and get good grades.
Go wherever you can get the best grades</p>
<p>So grades are of utmost importance regardless of where you go?</p>
<p>Yes.
4.0 at IVY> 4.0 at State School
4.0 at State school > 3.8 at Ivy</p>
<p>As long as its not like a CC or really low ranked it doesn’t really matter as long as you do well. Adcoms will always look at Grades and MCAT primarily</p>
