May I recommend a cheaper state school? Try to keep your undergraduate debt to a minimum, because medical school is extremely expensive. I went to a state school and I'm now deciding between several top 10 medical schools.
 
I'm sure OP appreciates the advice. Nine tough years were spent making this decision. 🙄
 
MIT if you want to major in Math, Physics, or Chemistry. UPenn if you want to major in Biology, Psychology, Sociology, etc.
 
Don't know if this has been said before, but two very important things to keep in mind:


1) Cost
2) Grade deflation/neutral policies. From what I've heard, MIT is deflatory.
