[quote=svelte][quote=Essbee]You can get into medical school from either UC or Ivy schools. It can happen from CSU, but it is statistically much less likely. Is this because the students are on average weaker, or because there is prejudice against them, or a bit of each? I don’t know the answer to that.

Those aren’t the only potential reasons. It could be that those who want to become medical doctors tend to start out at the schools where they can continue their education past the undergraduate years.

I can only tell you my observation that I have not met a physician colleague who went to SDSU for undergrad. I’m sure they are out there, somewhere, but they are much fewer than Ivy/Stanford/UC/other private/etc.

Not sure about the chart. Only list school providing 100 plus applicants. Minority apps come from lower ranked schools.
Doesn’t have actual admissions.
Yale might provide more apps with lower yield.
Could be fewer people at can state can ace the meat and keep up high gpa…and therefore don’t apply…but doesn’t mean the Yale name gave them the higher gpa and meat score. Just means the type of person who was going to do that was more likely to apply and they would’ve aced it anyway…
Applications are just indicators of a combo of desires and ones own perception one will be admitted
