[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I recently read that many people in this position (parent doctor, kid wants to be a doctor) are choosing state schools because their EFC makes them full-pay, but they want to save money for medical school. It's just a matter of what experience the kids wants and what they can afford. My whole family are doctors so I know very firsthand that doctor does not equal rich.[/quote] We both went to Hopkins medical school. Thoughts: -Hopkins undergrad pre-med culture is pretty cut-throat. I felt badly for anyone who slogged through that mess only to have continue on in medical school. There are much more pleasant ways to become a doctor. -free undergrad is great. We both went free to honors programs at second tier state schools. We had medical school classmates at Hopkins who went to every type of college under the sun: from the Ivy league to small bible colleges. The trick is to do well wherever you are and to ace the MCAT.
