Hello,
Of the three schools I'm looking at transferring to (done 1 year at CC)..two of them are in the top 90 ranking, and the other one is around a 200 ranking. All 3 have medical schools, and the lower ranked school is about a third of the price of the other two. I know someone who graduated from a 6 year MD program at the lower ranked school and said he could wholeheartedly recommend it, but for medical school. My main concern is that since it is a lower ranked school, I might receive less consideration than if I had gone to either of the more known schools, all things being equal in my application. I'm sure you guys have pondered this when transferring, I want to give myself the best chance of getting in ..how much of a factor is this, really?
