Which are the best colleges for premaid?
First of all, you need to write better English ("premed" not "premaid") if you hope to get into medical school some day.Premed programs at nearly any public four-year institution in the United States are good, as are the premed programs at private schools in the Ivy League, Stanford, etc. If money is a factor, there are strong premed programs at community colleges, too--check out the ones in your area.However, keep in mind that you don't necessarily need a premed degree to go into medical school. As long as you meet the course admission requirements for a later medical degree program, it might be worth considering majoring in something else (e.g. American literature, mathematics, history, etc.).

Should one definitely be premed if they want to go into public health or is studying public health at an undergrad level and taking some sciencemath good enough if your major is in the liberal arts?
I guess the real answer is it depends what you want to do in public health. No, you do not need to take the premed track if you would like to be a public health professional. In fact, you do not need any of the premed science requirements to get in to most MPH programs. Figure out what in public health you would like to do first (epidemiology, global health, health promotion, health policy, etc).
What is the direct medical program?
Typically, a high schooler would apply to an undergraduate school with any given major, do premed, and then apply to medical school. A direct medical program though, a high school student can just apply to that program and then go straight to that same school's medical school without having to apply. The high school student then wouldn't have to worry about whether he or she would get into a medical school, because medical schools are extremely competitive.
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.
