Medium sized schools for premed

[Anonymous]

DS wants to go to a medium, not too small, college without huge classes with hundreds of students. He likes urban or suburban near a major city.

Can you recommend some colleges to add to his list?

Penn
Georgetown
BC
Tufts
Emory

Even medium schools will have larger intro classes you'll take as a premed.

Er, depends on the school. Penn premed '27 has not had more than one above 100, most have been under 50. Most ivies, maybe not cornell idk, have small sections compared to UVA or even stanford.

OP pick one of the mid-size top schools where they have a med school on or decently close to campus with bus service if not walkable:
Penn (on campus)
Yale (on campus)
Duke (on campus)
Vanderbilt (on campus)
Emory (on campus)

Brown (shuttle/bus, less than 5 mi)
Harvard (less than 5mi)
WashU (less than 5mi)
Hopkins (less than 5mi)
Columbia (less than 5mi)

Op here. DS would love any of the schools you listed. He is high stats and has a shot. It is easier to identify reach schools. Hoping to add some schools outside T20.
