NOTE: "Chill" does not mean "easy" or "without rigor or hard work." I understand that a postbacc is a grueling undertaking.
But, that being said, I wanted to hear some opinions about the "chillest" postbacc programs, as in ones that are:
1. Not super competitive, among students (again, does not mean "not difficult," just a program where people sabotage does not prevail in hopes of securing a better organic chemistry grade)
2. Most supportive - not so much in terms of hand-holding or medical school advising, but in terms of a general non-apocalyptic, "end-of-the-world," alarmist attitude if a student, perhaps, does not fare so well on a test or is having trouble with a particular subject
Essentially, a place where students are not eaten alive in the crushing pressure of student competition and ruthless, draconian professors. Again, rigor is a-okay - which places, simply, balance and temper rigor and pressure the best?
Gracias.
