Acceptance rate: 2.6%
Wake Forest University’s school of medicine is one of the oldest medical institutions on the list. They have been working tirelessly since 1902 to provide all manner of medical aid to the people, and their goals still remain the same in 2017. Under the capable leadership of Dean Edward Abraham, there are over 1,100 full-time faculty members and 550 part-time teachers who provide the best education in medicine to their students. Last year, out of 9,115 applicants only 238 made it through selection, that sums up to an acceptance rate of mere 2.6%.
