Princeton Premed ??

<p>I have found out that only one Princeton graduate entered Yale Medical School last year. </p>

<p>Is this because Princeton does not have Med School ??</p>

<p>What does the existence or not of a PTon med school have to do with the fact there’s one PTon grad at Yale med school? I don’t get your line thinking whatsoever.</p>

<p>The fact that Princeton doesn’t have a med school is actually a good thing, because there are way more resources/research opportunities for undergrad students (ie. premed students)</p>

<p>I think Yale undergrads get huge bonus points when applying for Yale graduate & professional schools. About 10 Yale undergrads entered Yale med school.</p>

<p>Yale undergrads get a huge bonus because they attended Yale and are among the topmost med school candidates extant (much like their comrades who have Princeton degrees as well). Do they have a special “in?” Perhaps they did research and the med school staff knows their work. But what does this have to do with the cost of tea in china. If you’re truly a pre-med, your goal is to get into ANY medical school. Yale is super. But don’t be so presumptious. At Yale there were 4400 applications for 100 spots. If you truly want to be a doctor, you’ll take ANY slot in ANY reputable medical school.</p>
