Choosing the Right College/pre-med

Question
How do I find a college that offers a pre-med program? Thank you.

Answer
Medical schools today are interested in students with many different majors.  The most sought after major for medical schools last year was philosophy.  The most important thing for you to do is to choose a school that offers a good science program, take as many science courses that you can, but major in what you enjoy the most.  Doctors need to be well rounded and not just medical geeks.
