<p>Which school has a friendlier Pre-med curriculum/program, GT or UGA? Do you need to graduate with a B.S. degree by the time you apply to med school or be on your way to completing the degree? Do medical schools look at course rigor?</p>
<p>I’d stick with UGA if pre-med is your main goal.</p>
<p>I’d go with GT. Med schools like to see people with different backgrounds, and the rigor of GT is great preparation for med school.</p>
<p>Recent grads from GT have gone onto med school at: Harvard, Emory, Vanderbilt, Duke, etc.</p>
<p>Here are a few:

<p>GT would be the best bet IF you can keep a high gpa. I heard med schools really don’t care about the course rigor that much. That being said, UGA would be way safer if you want to be a doctor.</p>
