<p>This is got to be the biggest nonsense I’ve ever heard. What the heck is “pre-med community” anyway? Are they loving and supportive? :rolleyes:</p>
<p>The research opportunities depend on how many research projects and fundings faculty get. It got nothing to do with how many premeds are there. Therefore, the more premeds the school has, the less the research opportunities available PER premed. This is probably one of the reasons why large state schools do NOT do well compared to privates. Not to mention the annoying downside of the huge premed classes. OTOH, the LACs, even the ones not among the top, seem to do very well in med school placement.</p>
