Somewhat off topic but something I need to correct. Every US medical school is fantastic. They'll all get you where you want to be. The difference between the "best" and the "worst" medical school is really splitting hairs. To equate to the difference in terms of undergrad institutions the difference is like that between Harvard (#1 in the 2008 US News Ranking) and Northwestern (#11). Certainly there are medical schools that will fit you better, but focus on getting into ANY medical school first (an extremely difficult task by itself), then, once you've been accepted to 2 schools, worry about which one is better.
