[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Tufts is a top 40 school lots of money for that.[/quote]

as someone in academia who's very familiar with these schools, tufts is arguably a top 30. that's where they generally were ranked consistently until USNWR changed its criteria a few years back. now larger public schools (like uc davis, and uc santa barbara and others) have been uplifted and risen and ofc there are others who have been better a gaming ranking. but it all depends on what criteria your student values. there are a lot of people who want a top academic experience with collaborative student culture and a middle (5000-8000 undergrad) size but it's too difficult to get into brown, penn etc. tufts ia  good alt for that. I agree georgetown sfs is #1 for anything IR, but outside of that I may prefer the environment and community at tufts. and ofc tufts is no slouch in IR, although georgetown wins over all because of the advantages of dc location.[/quote]

thoughts on Tufts vs. LAC for pre-med? 
[/quote]

Depends on the LAC. If the LAC is rural, access to research and clinical experiences will be very limited. Tufts is urban and has a lot of LAC characteristics. I would pick Tufts.[/quote]

Poughkeepsie - I guess it’s suburban?

I’m guessing less access to research/clinical experiences there than Tufts.
