Welcome to
PreMed 101, UC Berkeley's premiere premedical decal. PreMed 101 is
a course designed and operated by a group of UCSF & UC Berkeley
students with one goal: to offer those who intend to pursue a life
as a medical professional a taste of that life and to arm them with
the information necessary for success at the undergraduate level.
PreMed 101 was founded in the Fall of 2003 by several students who
felt that UC Berkeley premed students , for various reasons, were
severely disadvantaged in the medical school application process.
Furthermore, they were concerned that many students had unrealistic
expectations about careers in healthcare.
Now into its 13th semester, PreMed 101 has become a collaborative
effort between UCSF & UC Berkeley students. Over the years, PreMed
101 has not only offered premeds the information they need to succeed,
but has also secured for its students shadowing opportunities with
physicians, jobs in emergency rooms, and even basic science research
positions at Lawrence Berkeley Labs.

The most popular source for undergraduate and graduate program rankings. These rankings are based on a variety of factors: peer assessment (how highly other medical schools view the medical school in question), selectivity, matriculant performance as undergraduates, NIH research grant dollars, & faculty-student ratios. Please note that there are two different systems for ranking medical schools: research and primary care.
