It is very important to choose the best school for yourself, as it will influence the quality of education, your future career – and of course your overall educational experience. Therefore Insider Monkey created their list with those schools that are hard to get in but the quality of education is high.  Generally medical studies last for four years, plus the residency years. The length of required hospital residency for surgeons can vary from three years to eight. Of course this period is very busy with learning the essential experience you will need for your further career, but you have enough free time for socializing, too. Medical students work hard and these studies are demanding but it is worth working so much.

Now without a further ado let’s see what Insider Monkey has investigated for us. We have picked two medical schools from their list.

The first one is University of California-San Diego. We are starting our list off with the University of California-San Diego,  with an acceptance rate of 3%. Now we can imagine how low that actually is right? Out of every 100 students who applied to get into the University of California-San Diego only 3 made it through selection. The thing is, the rate of acceptance is only going to get worse from there on. As per our ranking methodology, University of California-San Diego’s medical school has the highest rate of acceptance as it has been placed on number 10. The applications are now open, if you are looking to drop an application you have till November of this year to do that. The second school for today is Alpert Medical School. The application deadline for the medical school at Brown University, namely Alpert Medical School is November 1. The tuition fee for Alpert Medical School is pretty high at about $55,552. But, given the impressive faculty-student ratio of 1.4:1 that is to be expected. Out of 7,423 applicants last year, a mere 202 were selected for enrollment.
