Life after UChicago?

<p>The way I see it, after four years at the UofC I would have 3 possible paths:
1. Continue my education in grad school, perhaps eventually earning a PhD.
2. Enter a professional school, like med school
3. Get a job straight out of college</p>

<p>It seems that UChicago students are excellent at path 1, with the school's sterling academic reputation. However, what about paths 2 and 3? I've read some horror stories on CC about UofC premed advising, and I know that UChicago does not do grade inflation like some Ivies - both of which might make getting into med school more difficult. </p>

<p>What has been your experience with these paths? Which characteristics/practices/foibles of UChicago are beneficial or detrimental, and why? </p>

<p>(note:I posted a similar thread on the Williams College board)</p>

<p>Note, the official pre-med adviser for UChicago will be posting in the next week or two with responses to the questions in that thread. That will probably be your best bet for information. (Note, responses to the questions posed have been a long, long time coming! Hopefully the responses by the pre-med adviser will be appropriately robust.)</p>

<p>What about the other 2 paths?</p>
