[quote=Anonymous][quote] Personally, I would much rather be treated by a physician who worked hard at a Princeton and truly earned their spot at a medical school than someone who ended up at a medical school, even though they weren’t as well qualified, simply because their college was inflating grades to placate its students.[/quote] This comment is ridiculous. I have a kid in med school now. No one gets into med school just because their undergrad might have inflated GPAs. They still have to do well on the MCAT, have research, complete lengthy applications with essays and personal statement, and interview. Only roughly 50% of med school applicants are accepted each cycle. All this to support - I wouldn’t be worried about where my doctor went to undergrad! And FWIW, my kid went to an HYP, so this is not sour grapes.[/quote]
