[quote=Anonymous]Have you assessed which schools are most likely to offer your kid access to whoever is most needed to write letters of recommendation for med school? I think it's very important at this step to optimize for that further goal. Not just financially. Schools differ a lot in how they provide letters of recommendation. Also your kid will likely need to excel in science, do research, and do a lot of health care volunteering. Your revised plan needs to factor in these points. It may be better to shine at a lower tier school than get lost in a crowd at a higher ranked school. I have a friend who is a wealth planner whose son is interested in dental school. He is going to a small local Catholic university. The mom feels this will best optimize his chances of being prepared and admitted.[/quote]
