[quote=Anonymous]Thanks to the above posters for sharing their experiences on kids from elite schools with lower GPAs having an easier time with med school admissions than those from state schools with high GPAs. I've seen numerous Reddit and College Confidential posts and a few premed websites stating the complete opposite: it is better to have a near 4.0 at Podunk State than a 3.6 at Elite School. Having a premed kid starting at JHU this August, who is a bit intimidated by JHU's cut-throat and grade-deflation reputation, I really want to believe that the above posters are right. But a tiny voice inside me asks: why is there such a huge discrepancy?[/quote]
