[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Find out their admit rate for med school.

Also, can you share the name of the local private? It might help others avoid what sounds like a less than optimal educational environment.[/quote]

It's gotta be AU, GW, or GU. There are a few other privates in the consortium, but all three of those offer sports scholarships and are close enough to UDC to make the commute feasible (so, most likely AU). Odds are the student isn't at Marymount or Galludet. That leaves Catholic and Howard as the only other options.

I'm curious what he finds superior about UDC's teaching. College is a lot of lecture, until you get into upper level courses that are discussion heavy. There is a lot of assigned work to do outside of the classroom. And tutors are available to students (free at some school!) and a resource they should take advantage of.

Full disclosure, I did my MA at one of the consortium privates, and my doctorate at another (and worked in a non-academic capacity at a third!).[/quote]
