[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Find this thread pretty funny as an outsider several years outside of this process. My wife went to Mary Washington, then a "low ranked" med school (on a full ride) and ended up doing residency at Mayo and Fellowship at Hopkins. Yes, she's incredibly smart/brilliant, but each rung on the ladder means less than the one before it. Great Dr.'s come from all kinds of undegrads/med schools. It comes down to the student and the work they're willing to put forward. [/quote] How do people get "full rides" to medical school? I didn't think that was a possibility. I thought sticker price is actual price, there are no scholarships or grants, and this is why medical students have so much debt? [/quote] It was 2006? She got a full academic scholarship, but had to pay for living expenses. She was not drowning in debt upon graduation and one of the main reasons she went to the "lower" school compared to a bigger name. [/quote]
