<p>i want to do pre-med
which one do i go for?</p>
<p>The College (School of Arts and Sciences)
School of Engineering and Applied Science
School of Nursing
Wharton School</p>
<p>well you can study a lot of things and still go to med school, so theoretically any school would be good preparation. i would go with the college though because there is a lot more to choose from.</p>
<p>it's a bit of a waste to go to nursing, since you'll graduate with a bsn and then have to rehash a lot of stuff in med school (but that could be an advantage)</p>
<p>the other three schools all allow for premed studies, though wharton's requirements make it just a little bit more difficult</p>
<p>for example: </p>
<p>in SAS, you can study bio.
in SEAS, you can study bioengineering.
in WH, you can study health care management.</p>
<p>there's also the inter-school programs (joint-degree, interdisciplinary minors) that you could explore, too.</p>
<p>most kids, including myself, are in the college at Penn. ENG tends to be harder....so be careful when making a decision</p>
<p>They all say (btw, check out the pre-med forum...):
*Majoring in engineering pre-med is hard, because it's hard to maintain the type of high, competitive GPA
* Philosophy is actually one of the majors from which med schools accept lots of people from.
* It doesn't matter what major you are, as long as you fulfill requirements and make yourself an excellent candidate with high GPAs, volunteer work, etc.</p>
