<p>What type of medical school Caltech graduate go to typically?? I saw from another thread that they have new program for six students to go to UCSD?? If so, why not just attend UCSD now???</p>
<p>This program has just been approved and hasn't gone into effect yet.</p>
<p>What does UCSD deal buy for the decision? It is certainly not that impressive to go to UCSD after Caltech.. </p>
<p>What type of medical schools do Caltechy go usually?</p>
<p>I know of (personally) two students who are med school now. One is at UCLA, the other at WashU. I don't know the breakdown in terms of MD/PhD programs, but you pretty much have every option available to you. </p>
<p>I don't follow this too much, but I may have heard that President Baltimore (Biology Nobel, btw, but stepping down next year) had sort of taken the whole group of pre-meds under his control, making sure there was a program for rotation in a local hospital when med-schools complained they didn't have that type of experience. I would not be surprised if he wrote a lot of the letters too. </p>
<p>But... if you're really worried about this, there'll probably be more informative people at prefrosh weekend.</p>
