From other threads, I read that it doesn't matter at all what college you attend in terms of admission to medical schools...then why would one choose to go to ivy league instead of a local university where he can easily get a 4.0? I am having this dilemma because I am vacillating between Stanford University and a local university that I live close to. If you were to choose between the two, which one would you choose? I dont have any problem with scholarship issues for either college and I am 99% sure I want to work in a medical field. Thx and Happy new year~!
