[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kid isn’t pre-med but most of their friends at their T-25 are. Lots of anxiety over getting into certain lab sections, hard to get into pre-med extracurriculars, and  the anxiety over getting a pre-med internship (research, shadowing) seems to start right after first year orientation.

Is this a public? Everyone gets into premed courses and labs at kid's non-ivy T15. They open more sections if they fill. Literally every single student can get undergrad research in something. There are endless volunteer organizations to get involved with, many no cuts. Sure everyone wants to join a certain premed club as freshmen, but then they realize there are a hundred other groups to make a difference and show that you care about humanity. There are so many professors who mention "ask me about research" at the start of classes. Kid has a very good friend at an ivy and it is the same situation. The only person we have heard of having a bit of a rough go with classes is at Berkeley. But they did eventually get in to all the ones needed.
