UCSD vs Dartmouth vs USC for Premed

Of the three (UCSD, Dartmouth, and USC) which do you think has a stronger premed program (biochem major)

<p>University of California, San Diego</p>

<p>What a joke. Dartmouth has placement levels only surpassed by HYPS, and not by much.</p>

<p><strong><em>bump</em></strong> (stupid 10 character requierment)</p>

<p>Dartmouth is a no brainer here if money isn't an issue. Small classes, wonderful community and the prestige doesn't hurt.</p>

<p>I agree with Zagat. Dartmouth is the more than obvious choice. If it helps, though I understand that there are those who do not find this survey to have been complete, the Wallstreet Journal published this ranking of feeder schools:</p>

<p>Dartmouth is #7
the first UC is Berkeley at #41</p>

<p>for what it's worth...</p>

<p>I understand that Dartmouth obviously is the better overall school and the one with the most prestige, but specifically for sciences and premed I was under that impression that UCSD was better...anyone care to enlighten me on that subject?</p>

<p>damn you Dartmouth! how dare u accept me and complicate my plans....:p</p>

<p>and to top it all off Dartmouth and UCSD are sister schools....</p>

<p>Really, there is no comparison!! You;ve gotten into one of the most amazing colleges on earth. Take a deep breath, kiss the ground and go!!!</p>

<p>if money is not an issue between Dartmouth and UCSD... go to the ivy league school</p>

<p>i'll havta see how much money they give me...bwahahaha</p>

<p>being a san diego native some how makes me hesitate though...i know, i'm an dip**** for even thinking about not going</p>

<p>lol... that being said. you want to get away. GO TO DARTMOUTH! w00t</p>

<p>"I understand that Dartmouth obviously is the better overall school and the one with the most prestige, but specifically for sciences and premed I was under that impression that UCSD was better...anyone care to enlighten me on that subject?"</p>

<p>borkez, you understand that UCSD did not even make it on to the Wallstreet Journal list meaning that it was not even in the top 50 feeder schools. Dartmouth was #7, really, this should be an easy choice-- a no brainer as they say.</p>

<p>go to ucsd</p>

<p>Are you crazy??????????????????????? Actually, go to UCSD and tell Dartmouth to save your place for me!!</p>

<p>I'd recommend Dartmouth College.</p>

<p>someone explain the rankings to me then: dartmouth at 63 and ucsd at 6.</p>

<p>I'm on a one woman mission to lower Dartmouth's yield this year so that they need a big freshmen class next year. Yes, UCSD is clearly the better school for your needs and that weather!!</p>
