What part of the US do you like? What’s your favorite weather? What languages do you speak? Any idea what you want to specialize in? Do you like big cities or small towns?
There are literally HUNDREDS of med schools all over the fifty-one states. Help us focus.
It is my understanding that you take the MCATs and list schools you are interested in and then, depending on your qualifications and MCAT scores you will be matched with one. I don’t know if there’s anyone here who can tell you where you will get in. Perhaps the advising department at your university can advise you best.
I would say pretty much all of them. The paper is all that is important.
MUSC. Charleston SC. It’s a great school, in a great city.
Washington University School of Medicine, in St. Louis, MO.
US News and World Report Magazine Publishes a Yearly Ranking of 100 Top US Medical Schools. Search 3–5 years in back issues and see if a particular school You are interested in Maintained its Ranking for those years. This is a good starting point.
Remember, regardless of what Medical School You Choose, the only thing that can hold You back is You. Best Wishes!
