<p>Are there undergraduate schools that have a higher percentage of students being accepted by top medical schools than others? And if we want to be sure to be accepted by a medical school later on, what should we be looking for in undergraduate schools?</p>
<p>You should probably go to a school where you will feel most comfortable, and where you will be likely to succeed. I don't think prestige matters much. However, the facilities that a school makes available to you is also important, so that you can become more involved.
At least, that's what I understood from posts made by Norcalguy, BDM and Bigremed.</p>
<p>Some schools do have a greater percentage of applicants accepted, but from what I've seen, those statistics are not reliable. See posts from BDM to learn more about that.</p>
<p>By the way, there are almost no way to be "sure" to be accepted by a medical school. Many MIT, Cornell, Berkeley (and other prestigious schools) applicants with decent stats are rejected.</p>
<p>The schools with the highest percentage of applicants accepted to med schools are <em>gasp</em> the schools with the brightest students to start with. Every Top 20 school that has reported their med school stats has a 75%+ acceptance rate.</p>
<p>everyone asks the same question....
just go to a school were you can stand out...like be the top 10%
whats the point of going to harvard if you can only pull a 2.8-3.0 when you can go to a easier state school and gett a 3.7-4.0..... the latter would be a lot better</p>
