In all honesty I think this is a very privileged list that reflects great options for students who have money and privilege, or the select few who are able to earn merit scholarships. I think it neglects to recognize the variety of small local colleges many future doctors attend. As a premedical student, I found that the college you attend has far less to do with your experiences and skill as opposed to the city you live in. The bigger the city, the easier it is to achieve opportunities in research and advanced clinical opportunities. I go to a very small, largely unrecognized liberal arts college in Minnesota, and because of this I am able to shadow at Mayo Clinic and do research there as well. All I had to do was put myself out there, and build connections with professors who have worked with Mayo before. I think a lot of the research nailing these schools as "the best for pre-meds" has a great deal to do with the masses of intergenerational wealth these institutions hoard-- yes, students at these schools are more likely to go to medical school, but only for the same reasons they're more likely to get into these schools for an undergraduate degree (which for the most part is privilege and access to resources that many students are not able to obtain) Privilege doesn't mean you don't deserve to go to a good medical school, or that the students at these schools have to work less hard to get in, but it does indicate that they may have large advantages over students who go to less wealthy institutions and have less wealthy parents. (and again, I'm speaking for the majority of the students at these institutions, there are always going to be outliers of low-income students at these schools, but by being surrounded by generational wealth and resources, they in turn also benefit-- and many of the schools on this list make it deliberately difficult for low-income students to attend by favoring students with connections and resources)
Great thoughts on right fit.What is missing - Cost of some of these schools. USC, Columbia for students who get no Financial Aid is so expensive. Students should weigh how much debt burden they are willing to take and for how many years.
Thanks for the kind words, Vijay. We're actually working on a video for college affordability on these schools :) stay tuned! Let me know if you have other ideas for videos.
Hi Mr. Patel. I was wondering. can you make a video on how to deal with bad people in society. for example, teachers in high school, professors at college/university, and even work bosses, managers and supervisors at a workplace. I would highly appreciated it because in my opinion, one of the worst things about life is that you might run into people who are incredibly disrespectful. they make people feel hopeless and worthless. but it's not about the person who is antagonizing you. it's about yourself! you have the right to tell someone that that particularly person is being disrespectful to you. everyone in society should be as friendly as humanly possible.
Hello wonderful people of the internet, But this questions is for Mr. Patel. I am currently a sophomore, and I am 100% sure on my career in the medical field. I am already preparing myself for college by looking at the QuestBridge, a financial aid program, and I have most requirements for it! But I am still wondering, how do I make my question to becoming a doctor lighter on the wallet? Any other financial aid programs you recommend?
Questbridge is an excellent program for undergraduate education. Unfortunately, there currently isn't a program like that for medical school. If you join the military, they'll typically pay for you to attend medical school in exchange for a certain number of years of service. Alternatively, you can apply to medical schools, like Cleveland Clinic Lerner College of Medicine, that provide generous scholarships to students who are accepted.
@@jasonpatel13 Thank you so much, I have considered the military but I have other opportunities due to my status of being the adoptive system so I think I have an idea of what I want to do, but this did provide some helpful insight. Thank you agin
Hi Trasizion, I'm planning on being on the pre-med track in college. I'm having trouble deciding between Georgetown, Emory and UVA in terms of the strengths of the their pre-med programs. I would appreciate it if you have any advice on choosing between these schools.
Hello Transzion, I want to pursue pre-med and I was wondering what you think about University of Virginia for pre-med. I really like the school and it will be much cheaper for me as a Virginia resident. Let me know what you think. Thanks.
If I email you a resume of everything I have done in high school along with my GPA and scores, would you be able to determine the top 10 schools you would recommend me applying to if I am interested in majoring in neuroscience on a pre-med track?
Hey Jai, sorry for the late response. We didn't get the notification. Yes, we'd be able to give you a good snapshot of which schools to apply to. Happy to help!
@@jasonpatel13 hey there! I’m a junior in high school and I was wondering if you could do the same thing for me :) totally understand if you can’t but thank you for your consideration!
May I ask what you think of Case Western or University of Puget Sound? I know they are extremely different , but my daughter would be a pre-med athlete.
I am currently pursuing 12th in India and I want to get into a pre med school in US. Please tell about the procedure and exams which I would have to clear for admissions in one the best pre med schools.. Please tell..
Im not going to college to become a killer in the future. I am getting into premed and becoming a doctor because it's what my mother would want me to do. To look after my health and the health of every person around me.

Several of the schools on this list offer need-based scholarships for students. :)
omg these schools have good need based aid lol

It's always hard when people don't take you seriously. However, there isn't a one-size fits all answer for how to handle it.
This is one of the most helpful videos I have ever watched !

On what axis? There are a lot of ways to look at a school, from academics to sports or even quality of life. :)
Hi! I want to go to medical school and am deciding between Northeastern and Union College (NY)! Any advice?!
Will you be paying the same for both? Or will Union College be cheaper?

Yes!
How can I transfer into on of these school ? What Gpa should I get ?
The GPA depends on the school you're looking to get into.
Are CUNY colleges good for pre-med courses?
cuny's are good schools i kow city college and john jay have a 7 year MD Program BS/MD. You should look into it. CUNY"s are underrated.
Hey would you say university of South Dakota is a good school for pre med?

Hello pls can you help me with list of universities offering pre-medicine program.
Pre-medicine isn't a major in the US. You can major in whatever you'd like and still go onto attend medical school. :)
@@jasonpatel13 please can you list the major's
@@jasonpatel13 but Cleveland state university offer pre-medicine as a program
That's different than the degree you'll get if you graduate from there. There is no Bachelor of Science in Pre-Med. :)
Hello , do you think georgia tech is good for premed
Yes, it is!
Im not going to college to become a killer in the future. I am getting into premed and becoming a doctor because it's what my mother would want me to do. To look after my health and the health of every person around me.
Worst comment ever. You will never get into medical school with thoughts like this. Ever.
