Public Med School Rankings
Establishing Med School Rankings is tricky unless you know specifically what you are looking for in a medical school. To begin with, are you looking for a public or private school? If you are looking for a public school, there are 81 public medical schools in the United States.
As of July 2011, this is the most current list, according to the AAMC, and arranged alphabetically by name A-F:
- Cooper Medical School of Rowan University
is now receiving applications. There will be 50 students in the charter class and the class size will increase yearly by 10 students to a maximal enrollment of 100 students per year. As a brand new school, there is really no data to post regarding Med School Rankings of any sort. The Class of 2016 will begin its education in a new medical education building. It is in the spirit of and driven by the CMSRU mission that the educational facilities for undergraduate medical education have been designed and developed. Conveniently located one block from Cooper University Hospital, and scheduled for completion in June of 2012, the building is a 203,000 square foot, six-story building designed to support the CMSRU curriculum. - East Tennessee State University James H. Quillen College of Medicine
Opening in 1978, ETSU’s Quillen College of Medicine has established itself as a national leader in primary care and rural medicine, an important factor when compiling Med School Rankings. Quillen students enjoy an exceptional success rate in the national residency match, and over 50 percent of graduates choose a career in primary care. Quillen’s Community Partnerships Program and the Rural Primary Care Track continues to garner national recognition. A collegial atmosphere is encouraged at all levels and student involvement is valued. The medical campus is located on the grounds of the VA Medical Center pictured above and boasts one of the most technologically advanced patient simulation programs in the nation. The school is located in Tennessee’s fourth largest metropolitan area (population 1.2 million) and is part of the state’s fourth largest university (enrollment 16,000). It is supported by modern and convenient medical centers and clinics throughout the Tri-Cities area, as well as by hospitals and clinics located in small, rural communities such as Rogersville, Sevierville and Mountain City. The school enrolls one class of 72 new students in August of each year.
