MIT premed problems?

<p>There has often been talk here on CC of why MIT students do not do even better in med school admissions, given their academic abilities. This item from the MIT student newspaper may shed some light.</p>

<p>Woes</a> of a Premed - The Tech</p>

<p>Yeesh .</p>

<p>ouch. so..did that person ever get an advisor? =/</p>

<p>how is any computer at mit slow?</p>

<p>that blows. what kind of school makes you apply and write essays just to get some advising? and even after that still not give it to you??? is the advisor to student ratio that bad?</p>

<p>I'm guessing its only because there are relatively few premeds at MIT.</p>
