<p>I agree with BeanTownGirl re: debt. Try to keep it down. But also consider that the MCAT, unlike any other graduate test, will require an accumulation of knowledge that is gained over your undergraduate studies. For this reason, you want to make sure you look into going to a school that provides a good pre-med education. Tufts, Northeastern and BU all offer fantastic pre-med programs, but the flip side is that they are pretty pricey.</p>
