What are the top ranked premed schools?
"Premed" is not usually a major and few colleges have an official premed program; however there are colleges that are said to be strong in "premed" due to their effectiveness at sending their students into medical schools. These colleges tend to have a supportive network for premedical students consisting of comprehensive advising, academic mentoring, and numerous opportunities in extracurriculars and academics (ie. research). Colleges renowned for such high-quality premedical programs include University of Pennsylvania, Washington University in St. Louis, Duke University, Rice University, and Johns Hopkins University. Several of the Ivy League institutions have very strong programs as well. Of course, factors that may affect some of an university's medical school matriculation statistics include policies that allow only the stronger premedical students to apply for medical school; difficult introductory science courses that "weed out" a bulk of students; and the fact that the student body at upper-ranked universities generally tend to be of a high caliber and possess qualities that propel them through the difficult premedical track. Interestingly, most of the aforementioned programs have competitive US News Rankings and particularly strong biology departments as well. When choosing a premedical school, consider the school's resources as well as your personal abilities compared with the intensity of the school pool; choose the school where you will most strive as a student.

(Previous poster's answer below) It's really hard to say which Pre-med college is best because it's a pretty subjective topic. If you want the best in terms of the number of graduates matriculating into Med school, then UCLA, UC- Berkley, and University of Michigan are the best. So, the ranking really depends on how you define "best".

Pre-med is not a major. Students planning on attending medical school will major in biochemistry or similar, though some schools do offer structured premedical programs. It varies from school to school so it would be best to check the school's website for more information.
Can you recommend a Pre-Med program?
Remember, there is no such thing as a Pre-Med major. Some institutions indicate they offer Pre-Med programs. This is just a method of counseling to make sure the individual is taking the necessary background courses. Medical doctors come from a variety of backgrounds, however which ever field of study you come from. you must make sure you are well grounded in biology, chemistry, math, and physics. Thus, as far as a college or university, just make sure the institution has a regional accreditation and you should be fine: " 'Premed' is not usually a major and few colleges have an official premed program; however there are colleges that are said to be strong in "premed" due to their effectiveness at sending their students into medical schools.
