I'm with Trek,
Apply to any or all of the Tx schools. If you just want to get in, go with ALL of them. Your chances are greater (remember the stats given earlier in this thread). They make the application process pretty easy. If you are fortunate enough to have REALLY good stats, go with where you think you would fit in. I didn't bother with the small towns either.
I recommend visiting the campus. If you wait for interview day, they WILL try to sell you on their school. Whether you get a realistic impression, is hard to say.
I read in "D" magazine that Southwestern ranked in top 20 medical schools in the country. Everyone knows that they have 4 Nobel laureates, but what I didn't know is that there is no other school in the WORLD that can boast that. If you're into places like that, go for it. Friends tell me that they were not pressured into research at all at SW, despite popular belief.
In Dallas, Baylor and Southwestern don't mix and mingle too much. You are one or the other, not both. To decide between the two, again, check them both out. They are two different breeds.
Hope this helps. :wink:
