<p>Do private med. schools look at diversity in states too? For example, a school in the E. coast wants premeds who are from the W. coast?</p>
<p>Most med school classes are fairly small (50-150 students) so it is very likely that not every state will be represented and I am sure med schools are fine with that. If anything, med school (even private med school) acceptance rates are higher for in-state residents.</p>
