UCLA For PreMed?

<p>Is UCLA a good choice for someone who would like to pursue a medical career? Is it an excellent school for premed?</p>

<p>of course! seems like 1/2 the school is premed, including me. i heard from a graduated friend that ucla has the most premed in an undergrad institution. correct me if i am wrong.</p>

<p>first off, what are you looking for in a school? research, academics, professors, clubs, clinical, etc?</p>

<p>UCLA has the most students applying to med school of any undergrad institution each year. And yes, a lot of the first year class enters as "pre-med" - a significant amount of those drop out once they realize that there is more out there than just medicine and law, or when they realize the classes suck.</p>

<p>or they realize it isnt as easy as saying "i want to be a doctor"</p>

<p>just saying lol</p>

<p>I estimate that 1 out of every 4 UCLA students I meet is pre-med. :rolleyes:</p>

<p>what about pre-dental?</p>

<p>the real question is: are you man enough to be pre-med?</p>

<p>pre-dental..i know like one person who's doing pre-dental. but i don't really pay attn! i expect it to be a decent prgm since ucla has a great dental school.</p>
