<p>Hi Everyone,</p>
<p>Do you have any advice for selecting between Northwestern's HPME (7-year combined medical program) and Yale, Harvard, or UPenn's Vagelos?</p>
<p>I have no idea what to do and would appreciate any and all advice! I want to go to medical school, obviously, in the future.</p>
<p>Thank you so much!</p>
<p>Harvard. They have an almost unbeatable medical school placement rate, not to mention one of the best undergraduate programs.</p>
<p>Vagelos is an interesting program. It is very prestigious but doesnt necessarily put you on the straight path to medicine.
Northwestern’s program is one of the best expedited programs, but a quality medical education takes all 8 years of undergrad and grad</p>
<p>Definitely HPME, if you ultimately want to become a doctor. It’s one of the hardest programs to get in (definitely harder than Harvard or Stanford), and in terms of medical placement rate… I’m pretty sure it HAS to be 100% (Duh! It’s a guaranteed program). And in terms of educational quality, you won’t regret going to Northwestern anyways. It may not match Harvard/Stanford in terms of prestige, but who cares?</p>
<p>HPME, nothing is better than guarantee acceptance into medical school. Do you want all the stress of he possibility of not getting into a med school?</p>
<p>This one is too easy. Go to Northwestern for HPME.</p>
