[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There are books written about this, there are many threads on this forum about this as well. They all tell you the same thing. The ranking of your undergrad school is not important for med or law school admissions [/quote] +1000 Med schools care about GPA/MCAT, reference letters and what you do in undergrad to show you want to be a doctor (research/volunteering/working as a CNA, etc) A 3.98 from a small lesser known/not "elite" university gets the same chance as someone from Wash U. I'd argue that it might be easier to keep/get a high GPA while at a school where your kid is the big fish in a little pond and at a school where everyone did not get a 1580+ on their SATs. Attend a school where the basic science/premed courses are not typically weed out courses and your kid might actually have a better chance at Med school [/quote]
